Default TPTK facing a Post Flop Min-Raise

This is from this afternoon's $10 rebuy. 150 players left, 63 get paid, average stack 22k or so. Villain in the hand is a LAG who could be holding anything from a set to ace high. A couple of orbits earlier I laid down AK to a limp re-raise from another player who then showed 88. What's your line after the min-raise?

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t800 (9 handed)

Hero (t32160)
CO (t39651)
Button (t16824)
SB (t5415)
BB (t50116)
UTG (t16963)
UTG+1 (t14715)
MP1 (t17449)
MP2 (t24505)

Preflop: Hero is MP3 with Qd, Ad.
UTG folds, UTG+1 folds, MP1 folds, MP2 folds, Hero raises to t2400, CO folds, Button folds, SB folds, BB calls t1600.

Flop: (t4400) Qh, 5c, 7d (2 players)
BB checks, Hero bets t5600, BB raises to t11200, Hero ???

I'm new but I'll put in my .02

you probably have him out kicked, he could have QQ but being LAG he'd probably reraise all in preflop.

since you overbet the pot (not sure why) he probably put you on a steal so he reraised to test you, maybe putting you on AK and trying to pick up the pot. Id push.

New = Very low BR, just got into MTT's. Not a winning player yet. Not to mention everyone here seems to play at much higher levels than me, so my advice is probably insanely obvious to them. but i try.

Actually there is a mistake wrt pot size in the hand converter. My flop bet is exactly pot sized (2400+2400+400+450 antes). My bet was meant to let him know I was serious about this pot....

Not too difficult a lay-down IMO, don't even need the clock, actually.

Next hand.

You're folding this to a min-raise? Isn't that just a tad on the weak side?

Get the money in. I like the call, turn reraise all in line. This is player dependant, but on a non draw heavy board like this a set is more likely to check call. Smells like KQ or QJ to me and he doesn't know how much to bet.

I'd bet less on the flop, probably around 4000. If you're serious about the pot, then pushing is the best play. He could be using the min-raise as a bluff-catcher if he put you on a steal (image? were you bullying much?) or he may think he's good w/ KQ/QJ.
