Default \'Stars $11, AA preflop, flop play comments pls

Villain in this case has not shown anything real fancy, its still kind of early, some donks knocked out early. One dumb UTG limp earlier and villain had the pot odds to call a button push where SB and BB folded where he won with high card, not the Ace.

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t100 (5 handed) converter

UTG (t4590)
Villain(t2250)
Button (t900)
SB (t3612)
Hero (t2148)

Preflop: Hero is BB with A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img].
<font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Villain raises to t300</font>, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to t500</font>, Villain calls t200.

Flop: (t1050) Q[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 6[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 5[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
Hero checks, <font color="#CC3333">Villain bets t300</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to t1648</font>, Villain calls t1348.

Final Pot: t4346


My thought process was that his preflop raise could have been with practically any two big cards, Ax or any pair and I wanted him to call, hence the min-raise. If button or small blind had called, I definately would have pushed, or at least put over half my stack in, but heads up I want him to call.

Anybody advocating pushing on the flop in this spot instead considering where the stacks are at and whats in the pot?
