Hi, new to the board.

I was recently in a NL hold 'em tournament. Here's was the situation

1) There were three players including me left
2) All of us we're tight aggressive in our style of play with lots of experience
3) I was chip leader by a small to moderate margin - 6,000 chips approx

The Play

I was in 2nd position
blinds 75/150
No flop yet
1st position folds making me heads up with BB
I have pocket queens
I limp instead of raise hoping to induce a raise
BB raises
I re-raise and BB goes all in
I call - roughly 3,200 total
BB flips over A10 offsuit.
Flop comes, still leading
turn is an Ace
River is a blank
I lose over half my stack.

Did I make a mistake going for the kill? or should I have sat back collected the blinds (he likely would of folded if I would of raised instead of limped) and let the two shorter stacks beat on each other? I'd like some experienced opinions.

Thanks

CM
