PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t30 (8 handed) Poker-Stars Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

UTG+1 (t1850)
MP1 (t3050)
MP2 (t1650)
Hero (t1560)
Button (t1395)
SB (t1440)
BB (t1170)
UTG (t1385)

Preflop: Hero is CO with Q, Q.
3 folds, MP2 calls t30, Hero raises to t120, Button raises to t270, 2 folds, MP2 folds, [color=#CC3333]Hero ???

Do I push here, or just call and see what the flop brings?

with no read I would move in because he probably isn't folding and unless he has specifically AK you want the money to go in now.

I think I would be pushing here. If he has AA or KK so be it. There are a lot of hands the button could be raising with, for example mid pocket pairs. Personally I think QQ crushes too much of his raising range not to be pushing this.

I have to agree, shove it here.

Just to add another vote for shove over. I'm not folding QQ against an unknown $5.50 opponent. I would need a very specific read that opp is ultra tight to consider folding here. Just because he turns up with AA or KK this time doesn't mean you made the wrong decision because there are many other hands that he could have that you've got better than the right price against.
