I do like the huge preflop raise though and capturing MP's dead money.

IMO, this is the key to the hand (although the quiz hand didn't take this line). MP has had two chances to show the strength of her hand. She limped once, and then just called SB's push. A raise here from Hero represents a monster hand like AA/KK and is very likely to fold her out, and we get to play a HU pot with a small stack with MP's extra bet thrown in there as a sweetener. Plus, if she does call a re-reraise from us, we have position.
