Default Re: $50 QQ with PF action

First thing, I do agree with you already realizing that you should've reraised initially, this way if you get a re-re-raise from UTG+1, then you know a LITTLE bit more about the hand, most likely AA or KK. I have read and seen this move before, the overlimp, reraise. What some top players are doing is overlimping, because newbies are overusing the squeeze play b/c they just finished reading Harrington's Volume II. Seasoned players are willing to risk the possible multi-way pot with AA or KK so that when someone does the auto-squeeze in LP, they're ready to pop it again. Hard to say, but you have to either push or fold. Calling isn't going to help you at all, other than building a larger pot that's even harder to get away from. Also, calling will enable amazing odds to those to act behind you.

It's real early in the tourney, I say fold - you misplayed the initial raise and left yourself hanging. Wait around for another spot.
