Default 50NL AKs - tried a check raise

I've just sat down and i've watched villain raise 6 hands straight, and continue on the flop. 5 take downs, and one fold to a raise.
I went for the check raise on the flop, and then he totally confused me...

Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em, $ BB (10 handed) converter

saw flop|<font color="#C00000">saw showdown</font>

MP3 ($38.95)
CO ($70.2)
Button ($59.85)
<font color="#C00000">Hero ($49.5)</font>
BB ($38.15)
UTG ($53.3)
UTG+1 ($102.04)
UTG+2 ($15.1)
MP1 ($50.3)
<font color="#C00000">MP2 ($85.15)</font>

Preflop: Hero is SB with A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]. Hero posts a blind of $0.25.
<font color="#666666">4 folds</font>, <font color="#CC3333">MP2 raises to $2</font>, <font color="#666666">3 folds</font>, Hero (poster) calls $1.75, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>.

Flop: ($4.50) 6[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
Hero checks, <font color="#CC3333">MP2 bets $2</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to $6</font>, <font color="#CC3333">MP2 raises to $10</font>

I flat called preflop with the intension of check raising if a an ace hit.
What is my move now any why?
All comments and thoughts welcome.

I would likely fold to the 3-bet and expect to see AQ or better 85% of the time.

typically yes but given villain description, I think this is one of the few 15 percent times.

Villain raises 7 hands in a row and we put him on AQ? And anyway, at least call the raise and hope to spike a K, you are easily getting odds.

Oh, true, I forgot to read the villain's description. I like xorbie's line better.

Funny you should say that.

Flop: ($4.50) 6[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
Hero checks, <font color="#CC3333">MP2 bets $2</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to $6</font>, <font color="#CC3333">MP2 raises to $10</font>, Hero calls $4.

Turn: ($24.50) K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>

I don't see how you're ever getting odds to spike a 3 outer, especially when you can be expected to pay heavily on the flop onward.

What do you put him on that raises pre-flop and 3 bets this flop?
