Default commiting to a hand at the start of a tourney

I was playing the 100$ buy in tourney with about 350 entries.
After about 10 min of play, all stacks still close to the starting point, I get QQ in middle position and raise X4 BB making it 120.
the button raises me to 420, and all fold to me.

I decided to call and bet the flop depending if no scare cards come out.

flop was JJ2 I raised his remaining chips ... (most of mine)

The question is, how do you feel about your hand after he raises you pre flop ?
calling his raise and then folding look very weak... he may have a lower pair...

the tourney just started, so is it rigth to commit to this pot and put your live on the line with QQ ?
