Default ($12) QQ in BB with UTG limper. Standard push?

Full Tilt Poker
No Limit Holdem Tournament
Blinds: t120/t240
5 players
Converter

Stack sizes:
UTG: t2340
CO: t3500
Button: t1430
SB: t3420
Hero: t2810

Pre-flop: (5 players) Hero is BB with Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]
UTG calls t240 <font color="aaaaaa">(pot was t360)</font>, 3 folds, 3 folds, <font color="#cc0000">Hero raises all-in t2810</font>.

The villain is a good, thinking, tight player. Anyway, standard push?

You have to raise. The villian has 2100 chips left, so he's probably gonna fold and I think a push is fine.

Does anybody like a raise to ~1100 (with the intent to get all your money in the next time the action is on you)?

Yeah, I know this part very well [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

But what's next? I mean, say, we have a note that he is limptrapping with AA having 10bb. How do we play then? Raise and fold to a reraise? What if he smooth calls and the low board comes - are we going broke then? Because I see no way to get a cheap showdown - with these blinds all the chips will be in the middle on the river for sure...

Any ideas/lines?

even with the note we're still shoving with QQ. If you raise you're calling a raise. If he smooth calls you're pushing with a low board. QQ is just too strong to fold based on what the villain did in one particular hand.
