Default [NLTRN] Opponent bets into preflop raiser

$10 sng

My opponent got ultra good cards; big pocket pairs or high suited cards and has flopped or turned the nuts a couple of times. So he's been raising me quite a few times.
When he flopped the nuts after my preflop raise, he waited for me to c-bet and just called a couple of times.
I had the feeling he was pretty aggro but I think that's mainly because he ran hot

Then this hand:

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t30 (2 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: 2+2 Forums)

BB (t1150)
Hero (t1850)

Preflop: Hero is Button with Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img].
<font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to t90</font>, BB calls t60.

Flop: (t180) 3[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 7[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 6[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">BB bets t120</font>, Hero ??

Is this a standard raise because he looks weak? Or should I just wait for a better opportunity?
Should I be happy to get away from the hand cheaply?

if you raise here to 360ish and he pushes you are getting close to being committed

just fold the flop and wait for a better spot than this

villains line is weak, but they often won't fold to a raise as they may have hit a small piece of the flop and decide to push over the top.

I really hate these plays. I know they often don't have anything, but I haven't either.

I folded and he showed QTo. The next hand I busted him when he went all-in against my full-house.
