Default Late in tourney, against the table chip leader

Villian is fairly new to the table, only have 15 hands with villian, he is 50/0.

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t2000 (8 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

BB (t103727)
UTG (t35141)
UTG+1 (t6551)
MP1 (t65435)
MP2 (t31870)
Hero (t33330)
Button (t61004)
Villian (t108155)

Preflop: Hero is CO with J, J.
2 folds, MP1 calls t2000, 1 fold, Hero raises to t8000, 1 fold, Villian calls t7000, 1 fold, MP1 folds.

Flop: (t18400) 6, 7, 3 (2 players)
SB checks, Hero ?

What is your play (bet sizing)? What are alternate plays? I know that I have the best hand at this point, especially since the hands that he has shown down are K8s, QTo, T6s, T5s, and 86s.

BTW ~24 people left and my stack is about 10k under average stack. I feel that the play is pretty straightforward, just not sure if MY tournament strategy is optimal.

shove...There's no way to get away from this. You've got about a PSB left, so just stick it in there.

I think the converter has the pot size wrong; based upon the pf action it should be 20,800.

I'd bet 10,000 and push the rest on the turn.

if pot's 18k I make it 12, if it's 20, I make it 14...call any shove and put rest in on turn if called on flop.
