Default Interesting line with AA in a family pot (11\'s)

I apoligize that I have no reads, it was the fifth hand and I was not overly paying attention due to 6 tabling.

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t20 (8 handed) converter

Hero (t1500)
MP1 (t1200)
MP2 (t1280)
CO (t1460)
Button (t1880)
SB (t1500)
BB (t1480)
UTG (t1500)

Preflop: Hero is UTG+1 with A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]. SB posts a blind of t20.
<font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, <font color="#CC3333">UTG raises to t40</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to t100</font>, MP1 calls t100, MP2 calls t100, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, Button calls t100, g'meyurchips: calls t90, SB (poster) folds, UTG calls t60.

Flop: (t610) Q[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 6[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(5 players)</font>
g'meyurchips checks, UTG checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets t300</font>, <font color="#CC3333">MP1 raises to t600</font>, MP2 folds, Button: calls t600, g'meyurchips folds, UTG folds, Hero calls t300.

Turn: (t2410) 4[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">Hero bets t800 (All-In)...</font>

I would of raised a little more preflop, say 125-150.

One questoin real quick, what cards were you NOT pushing on the turn, if any?

I was genuinely conetemplating a check and re-evaluating should the turn hit a spade that further connected the board texture. Perhaps even if the board just connected with an offsuit card.

I'm just curious if you were trying to play your aces for value or if you were just playing them cautiously.

What was your mindset during this line?

Did you think about pushing the flop?

Thanks.

MP1 wants to get it in on the flop. Oblige him. If he has Q10, suck out. You are almost always ahead on this flop, and you are much more likely to get minraiser in on the flop than the turn. Push the flop.
