Default 4/180 late AQos facing tough spot

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t800 (6 handed) Hand History converter Courtesy of PokerZion.com

SB (t26771)
BB (t12314)
UTG (t14852)
MP (t53662)
Hero (t28131)
Button (t10007)

Preflop: Hero is CO with A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img].
<font color="#CC3333">UTG raises to t1600</font>, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to t3200</font>, <font color="#666666">3 folds</font>, UTG calls t1600.

Flop: (t6600) T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 7[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], T[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
UTG checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets t4000</font>, <font color="#CC3333">UTG raises to t8000</font>, Hero??


Should I have re-raised here. He's stealing blinds like a mad man and only showed down QJos. I have a feeling he could re-raise me here with any pp, and anything from KJ, KQ, A9-AK. Just seems like a bad call if i call. he is obviously committed so hes screaming that he's strong

Make your preflop reraise like 5K to start off with, your reraise was way way too small. This will make the flop easier to play too.As played I think you have to fold the flop.

If you ever minraise preflop, you may as well sit out. You pretty much raise a flag saying "I have no idea how to play this strong hand, but it's strong"

And even worse, your hand isn't that strong, which means c/r is a surefire you're beat.

Raise more pre-flop and smote him back the the firey depths of min-raise land from whence he came.
