Default Trying to bluff out the bigstack

How is my play in this hand? Villian is super loose, relatively aggresive, and made his stack by calling a lot with garbage and sucking out. I'm tight as always, and it is my first pfr since we are 4-handed. What would you recommend for the turn action?

Party Poker
No Limit Holdem Tournament
Blinds: t200/t400
4 players
Converter

Stack sizes:
UTG: t6260
Hero: t6200
SB: t21830
BB: t5710

Pre-flop: (4 players) Hero is Button with T[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]
UTG folds, <font color="#cc0000">Hero raises to t1000</font>, SB calls t800 <font color="aaaaaa">(pot was t1600)</font>, BB folds.

Flop: 8[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 8[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (t2400, 2 players)
SB checks, <font color="#cc0000">Hero bets t1200</font>, SB calls t1200 <font color="aaaaaa">(pot was t3600)</font>.

Turn: 7[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (t4800, 2 players)
SB checks, <font color="#cc0000">Hero is all-in t4000</font>.

Looks good, you're not really giving away a lot of information with you're all in, as you'd likely be pushing w/anything after he checked the turn, as you're pot committed at that point.

Chances are your beat, but maybe you can put him off his better higher Q or he has Ax and is just calling his chips away on the flop and folding to you on the turn

you can only assume your ahead, so you want a call on the turn. i think 4k might chase them away, so i would bet haf my stack here to get a call.
