Default $5.50 - Re-Raise from Button with QQ, go all the way on A high flop?

I was looking to isolate CO with my re-raise here, but maybe I should just push pre-flop? I definitely didn't like the A high flop, but after CO's check, I decided to push and represent a big A. Is there a good chance that CO has an A here and I'm drawing to 2 outs though? How bad is this play?

PokerStars Tournament, Big Blind is t50 (7 handed) Converter on pregopoker.com

UTG (t1318)
UTG+1 (t1550)
MP1 (t1727)
CO (t2485)
Hero (t1640)
SB (t3185)
BB (t1595)

Preflop: Hero is in Button with Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]

U have position after the flop,Ilike the reraise maybe to 450.
On this flop I check behind because o the ace,u cant afford a
conti bet and a push is only called by better hands.

I think you have to make a bet on the flop here. T400 and fold to a push. you still have almost 17 big blinds left to get back in the game.
