I base this decision entirely on this article, located in this forum's stickies:
 http://www.flopturnriver.com/phpBB2/...oker-32893.htm
Basically, the article says that at  low stakes, if you hold  TPTK or an over  pair, then bet 1/2 to 2/3 of the pot and are raised, then you are most likely beat.  I play $10NL and have to say that in my limited experience, it holds true.
 
Just a guess here, but I'd guess that the villian was holding A 3  suited.  
			
		 
	 
 Please don't fold big overpairs in threebet pots with standard stacks behind. kthx gg. 
 
This article is written for raised pots (not re-raised), lots of money behind (3 potsized bets or more) and against very passive opponents who aren't capable of deep, daring bluffs and don't raise when they can't beat unimproved AA.  
 
3bet pots are quite different story. The only rational hand that can beat QQ here is JJ and trappy KK. 
 
Aok should make another section in his PP system, involving playing re-raised pots (before new players start to setfarm AA in 3bet pots).
