Default semi-deep stacked with an overpair

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $4 BB (8 handed) converter

UTG ($755.25)
UTG+1 ($167)
MP1 ($614.15)
MP2 ($140.50)
CO ($394)
Button ($186.30)
Hero ($670.70)
BB ($435)

Preflop: Hero is SB with Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img].
UTG calls $4, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, MP1 calls $4, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, Button calls $4, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to $28</font>, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, UTG folds, MP1 calls $24, Button folds.

Flop: ($68) 6[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], J[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 7[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">Hero bets $50</font>, <font color="#CC3333">MP1 raises to $180</font>, Hero ...?

Villain has been playing pretty TAG and hasn't gotten out of line as far as i have seen, this is also my first time playing with him, so i cant rule out the possibility of him making a move. My image is very tight and he definitely knows this. Is everyone letting this go or do you want to play for 150bb with an overpair?

TAG that hasn't been getting out of line limp/calls preflop and then raises that much on that flop? Thats not AJ ever, and a wierd semibluff not nearly enough to play for my stack here [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

Fold. He probably has a set. Even if he doesn't, you only beat AJ and a flush draw semi-bluff. KK and AA are also possibilities.

I fold here because of the read. I think that AJ of diamonds is definitely more likely than any of KK/AA, but a set seems more likely than either. Even if it's AJ of diamonds, he is only about a 60/40 dog. I will note, however, that I see a lot of LAGgy players do this large flop raise with pairs like 99 and TT as well as any AJ.
