Default QQ Top Set Deep-Stacked vs. Keyser

Dealt Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] in the CO. Three orbits or so have run at the table, which is six-handed. Both I and the button have a standard tight image, not much should be known about either of us to each other. We're playing with 200 BB stacks.

I open raise the QQ in the CO and get reraised a small amount, about 3x by the button. Given his tightish action so far I decide to call instead of four-betting. The two of us are heads-up. The flop is Q[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]J[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]T[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] and I lead out for 3/4 the pot. He flat calls. The turn is 3[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]. Again I lead out 2/3 pot and he just pushes. I'm getting about 7:3 and I call.

Comments on other ways to play the hand? I'm really lost as to how deep-stack influences how I should have acted. Is 4-betting preflop much better? Is going for a check-raise on the flop much better? Is bet/folding the turn a little better? The main difficulty I had on this hand was my lack of deep-stack experience and the short number of orbits run so I really had no reads.
