Default PS $55 6max, icky 2 pair spot

This is one of those spots it sucks being OOP. No read on villain as he just got moved to our table. How do I proceed?

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t50 (5 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: 2+2 Forums)

Hero (t3885)
UTG (t5860)
MP (t2070)
Button (t5327)
SB (t2398)

Preflop: Hero is BB with 8[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img].
UTG calls t50, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, SB completes, Hero checks.

Flop: (t150) A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 6[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 8[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
SB checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets t100</font>, <font color="#CC3333">UTG raises to t500</font>, SB folds, Hero?

I'm doing whatever it takes to get it all in. I'm def not assuming he flopped a flush. Also, I've played this tourney a bunch of times lately and it seems like especially early on people love paying off. He probably has some kind of ace or maybe the K [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img].

Raise to like 1500 or something, call a push.

Also, I think 6 handed I like a raise with that hand PF.

i agree i would raise to 1300 and call a push. Your hand fairly disguised and the only hand that has you beaten is 66 imo.

You can't put a guy on a flopped flush, but it is a possibility..
I would re-raise to 1300 as said and call a push. You have outs against all possibilities here(tho not many).
