Default QQ late tourny against action, correct?

New to the higher $ MTTs (well, ok, mid-level, $20 MTT [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]) but I think this play is correct (maybe a 'duh' yeah thing?). My read on villian was that he was pretty loose with his pushes, coming over the top often of people. The few times he was called out, he showed down A9o and pocket 7s doing similar things, so I had his range pretty wide.

All comments appreciated, I think this is standard

Results in white below:
<font color="#ffffff">Villian had AA and I didn't improve, which crippled me and I finished 33/729, my best finish to date in a larger $ MTT (usually a $2-10 player). I think the play is correct though, so not concerned about the results if I played the hand right...</font>

Against a player like that, ull catch him weak alot. Sometimes they wakeup with a hand. only time not to take this risk would be in bubble situation, unless ur playing for 1st(which is ok) then ur playing JJ or better near everytime.
