I mostly skimmed this thread.  A few quick thoughts:
 
1. I mostly agree with Brian.  I do think shoving with 11 BBs is fine in this spot, but I too probably prefer to usually just open it normally (especially in a situation where it might look like you are stealing, like in late position).
 
2. I ALMOST agree with Kurn, but one of the few exceptions happens to be this exact flop - AKx.  I'd fold QQ there and save my 8 BBs for a better spot (all in preflop, of course).
 
3. jdiana is a way bigger 

 than I thought.  Only put in 75% of your stack so you can fold after the flop??? 



  Whoa.
