Default ($22 Stars) QQ facing TAG\'s Reraise

Villan seems to bet big with his strong hands. Table has been playing very tight for a 22. How would you play this hand? I think there is a strong arguement for folding. We will still have 14bb left, which is more than enough to make a run at 1st.

I would give the villan a very tight range of: TT+, AK. Here are the pokerstove results:

equity (%) win (%) tie (%)
Hand 1: 52.3710 % 50.99% 01.38% { QQ }
Hand 2: 47.6290 % 46.25% 01.38% { TT+, AKs, AKo }

Real Question: Is it better SNG strategy to fold this small edge and wait for a bigger one? Basically is it more important to avoid going broke than it is accumulating chips in this spot?

PLEASE EXPLAIN WHY.
