($5.50) QQ VS. Min-Raise and Call
 

650 Players Started the tourney. About 70 Away from the money. I'm about top 50 or 60. The UTG seems to be on the loose-passive side I once raised with A8s and UTG called then a guy behind him pushed. I folded and UTG+1 called and flipped up KJs. The CO is nothing spectacular as far as I can tell.

Looking back at this hand I think should have put UTG+1 on at least a premium hand with that donk min-raise from EP. I'm thinking now the the right move here was to just call the min-raise and play the flop carefully. Was my above play fine or should I have played my queens more slowly?
