5.5 deep tourney TT facing a big bet oop

[hamnegger]

if the flop comes w an ace im out . if flop comes w 2 hi cards im out if flop comes w 1 hi card i play it as best hand. i lead i don't check. any c-bet pot committs him to seeing 5 cards.

I figured he had a hand like 88-QQ, AK, AQ, but most likely 88-QQ since he bet so big. I pushed to avoid any tough decision and he had AK. TT>AK.

From his perspective (if you were villian) how much do you raise preflop? I've started raising 2.5bb with hands like this (AK, AQ, 99-jj) and have done better than jacking up the pot since a cbet wont commit me when someone comes over the top and the flop isnt great.
