Default AJ from button

Early in a $20 SNG on FullTilt. I doubled up early on QQ when board came KKJ. I've been somewhat lucky on my button and have raised most of the time, taking down the blinds uncontested each time but otherwise, I've been playing pretty tight. I'm not sure the villain is even paying attention to this though.

Villain seems to be loose. Has limped into a lot of flops, sometimes betting, sometimes folding. Not many reads beyond that.

BB (t1950)
UTG (t1260)
MP1 (t1615)
MP2 (t2715)
CO (t2550)
Hero (t3265)
SB (t1085)

Preflop: Hero is Button with J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img].
<font color="#666666">4 folds</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to t180</font>, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, <font color="#CC3333">BB raises to t300</font>, Hero calls t120.

Flop: (t630) 6[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 3[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 4[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">BB bets t600</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to t2965 (All-In)</font>, BB folds.

Final Pot: t4195

My thinking was that he raised to defend his blinds then took a stab at a safe flop. Thoughts?
