$200 6 Max, QQQ on very coordinated board

Just curious on what the forum consensus is on what the plan should be for the rest of this hand. Opponent was on the tight side, and fairly passive. I think the bigger stacks makes it a little more interesting.

There are a lot of scare cards on the turn, and you would have to play out the rest of the hand with a lot of money behind. You don't think it would be better to get pot committed before the turn?

Why don't you like reraising the flop? It seems we don't get enough value out of AK or two pair if we smooth call, since a flush or many other scare cards will slow such a hand down.

i like a big reraise, to something like 180 or 200$. want to back this hand with all my money and dont like to give free/cheap cards.
