Default Trips scenario...

I'm just curious how people would react in the following scenario. Now, this is just off the top of my head so I'll give as much info as I can think of and hopefully it's correct enough to get some good ideas from people on what they'd do. So have fun...here you go:

You're deep in a NLHE turbo tournament, only 12 places left til payout.
You've got $6600 in chips with the blinds being 200/400.
You are sitting as 4th best in chips at the current table; leader has $16K, next best to you has $8800, and one guy is just above that.
You haven't been at this table long because you got moved, so no real solid reads yet.
Of 10 seats, there are 8 people at this table.


Now....so far, you notice that the leader is making massive preflop raises the first few hands you've been dealt at this new table. You also notice that no one at the table is taking any risk against him. One guy finally does go all in against him about 4 hands in, and the leader shows a monster, and the caller is put out. You make a mental note to keep a sharp eye on the leader at this point, but don't put any solid information on him just yet.

Another hand comes and goes...with only 7 people now left at your table, and again, the leader makes a huge raise and everyone folds to him.


On the 6th hand, you are dealt 66 in the BB.

Everyone folds to the leader who is on the button, and as usual, he makes a massive 2000 raise into you.
You think for a moment...perhaps this is a positional raise...and you decide to see a flop...


Flop: 6 2 A

What is your next move on this flop and why?
