Default Stars 500K Bubble Hand - Push this flop?

This hand is from today's 500k on Stars. We are about 20 players short of the money. I have been card dead and haven't played a hand for 3 orbits, until the one two hands previous where I raised from the button air and folded to an all in from the BB. Villain in this hand has been aggro and been playing pretty good big stack poker. Do I need to push this flop once it's checked to me?

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t1600 (9 handed) converter

Hero (t21684)
CO (t13032)
Button (t25775)
SB (t30839)
BB (t66123)
UTG (t27725)
UTG+1 (t14532)
MP1 (t16655)
MP2 (t9070)

Preflop: Hero is MP3 with K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img].
<font color="#666666">4 folds</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to t4800</font>, <font color="#666666">3 folds</font>, BB calls t3200.

Flop: (t8600) 7[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], T[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 2[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
BB checks, Hero ????

a standard continuation bet will probably win the pot. Going all in here is a bad play imo it screams bluff.

There is a problem with the hand converter, the pot is 11800 not 8600, I can't see making a 5-6k bet here and then folding to an all in - are you suggesting that i bet/call or bet/fold?

I think your only bet here is a push.

The only other option is check it through and pretty much be done with the hand if the turn misses.
