I would consider calling OTF. You do not need to get value urgently because your equity is pretty robust.
By calling you can get value from bluffs, too. And if Villain has overcards and hits one of them you will probably win his stack (generally speaking, maybe not 292bb deep...).
By fast playing the hand you pretty much only get value from overpairs.

The reason I decided to reraise, is because he has 3bet me preflop + he is betting pot on flop...
Don't really understand his play, I was assuming he would go all the way if he was that aggressive. Seems I was wrong.

villain's betsizing is very polarizing, it's probably better for our entire range to just call.
however, exploitatively, it makes sense to raise with nuts when villain is strong, if you were somehow sure of that. as played seems fine enough.

It's also villain depended if i would raise the flop or not, but you expect villain isn't likely to fold based on the huge Cbet sizing. If i would raise i would make it even more like 1,20. Turn is standard with the intention to shove a blank river.
