too aggressive? (for some reason the converter didn't catch my all-in but after MP1 raised to t500 I pushed and he called)

The 200 bet is so much an overbet, I think anyone raising this has to have at least AK and more likely, AA-QQ. Tough to get away from, but I think I would seriously consider folding to the re-raise.

Limp for set value/overpair value on the flop

200 is a bit of an overbet. I wouldn't limp, but that raise is pretty massive (almost 6xBB on top of the blinds). Even if you were just called, you might be in a dangerous situation (with certain players KQ would be a big worry). However, when the villain bets out for nearly two thirds of his stack, I don't see how you can push. You're almost always beat here.
