Default Re: Open Raise 10BB?

A recent example:

I had just bought in for $200 in a $1/$2 NL game. Got dealt AA. UTG raises to $20 ($150 behind). I'm in MP, I think about raising -- but I need to raise to $60, which is about 1/3 of my stack -- pot committing me no matter what the flop is. What do I do? I push. Button calls with QQ ($60). UTG folds. I win $80. I'm happy, but I'd like to actually play the game rather than pre-flop push.
