assuming your stack size is average, i think this play is fine

Looks good. I like the large pre-flop raise to limit the field.

Perfectly played. If he hit his set, that just sucks.

Stack sizes would help, but this seems reasonable. I might have raised a little more preflop but what you did was definitely fine. At a $10 tournament I can't imagine any other line to take.

Put the chips in before the flop becase you have best hand in poker and you play right.

Uh...pushing AA preflop for 40-50 BB here isn't playing right. Pushing on the flop is.
