Default 2 steals and a crappy scenario with AQ

All of these hands are from a $22 tournament

Here was the hand that set hand #2 up:

<font color="#C00000">SB (t1710)</font>
BB (t5495)
<font color="#C00000">Hero (t1183)</font>
UTG+1 (t4039)
MP1 (t3621)
MP2 (t2570)
CO (t5385)
Button (t750)

Preflop: Hero is BB with Q[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]. Hero posts a blind of t100.
<font color="#666666">5 folds</font>, SB calls t50, <font color="#CC3333">Hero (poster) raises to t1283</font>, SB folds

Final Pot: t1383

SB was a limp,limp, minibet tard. Easy steal scenario for me, I didn't want to play postflop with a hand like KQo, so I stole it.

The very next hand:

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t100 (8 handed) converter

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

CO (t1710)
Button (t5395)
Hero (t1283)
BB (t4039)
UTG (t3621)
UTG+1 (t2570)
MP1 (t5385)
MP2 (t750)

Preflop: Hero is SB with Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 8[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img].
UTG calls t100, <font color="#666666">4 folds</font>, Button calls t100, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to t1333</font>, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, UTG folds, Button folds.

Final Pot: t1633

SB is now button, I'm in the SB. UTG is a passive player from what I've noted, so I figure him for a marginal hand. Same with limp-limp minibet tard on the button. So I push again. And steal. Is this an okay play?

Lastly, an AQo hand. I have 1200 behind me after the raise, and the reraiser is the passive UTG player from hand 2. How the hell can I play it after his minraise preflop?
