Default Too Aggro on the Bubble?

So I've been trying to be more aggressive on the bubble, but maybe this is just dumb? Villain seemed to be overvaluing his middle hands, but had shown a willingness to fold to strength.

Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t300 (4 handed) converter

UTG (t2250)
Button (t1900)
SB (t760)
Hero (t3090)

Preflop: Hero is BB with J[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], T[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img].
UTG calls t300, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to t900</font>, UTG calls t600.

Flop: (t1950) 6[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">Hero bets t2190 (All-In)</font>, UTG calls t1350 (All-In).

Turn: (t5490) 5[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players, 2 all-in)</font>

River: (t5490) K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players, 2 all-in)</font>

Final Pot: t5490

Once I'm there, how about the push on the flop?

Once your pre-flop raise was called....I would take a look at the missed flop.....my t2100...... and check fold.

Take him down next time.

I'd like to know the buyin level here, but I think raising is reasonable. However I'm scared to make it just 600 more, they might call with hands they will fold for more money.

This one was just a Party 22.

So making a move isn't out of the question? But pushing or raising for more at least is the right play?

How about the bluff push on the flop. I figure unless he's got a Q or maybe two spades, he's going away. Too risky?

Also, if raptor thinks it might be too aggressive, it's too aggressive.
