Default 2/4 QQ preflop decision

Original raiser in CO was 48/36. Villain in SB was 8/8 (over only 35 hands), but would presumably have been taking original raiser's image into account. What is our best course of action here with this hand facing a 3-bet? I feel like just calling makes my hand transparent (I wouldn't consider it with anything except QQ), and folding is too nitty.

Poker Stars - No Limit Hold'em Cash Game - $2/$4 Blinds - 6 Players - (LegoPoker HH Converter)

<u>SB: $460.00</u>
<u>Hero (BB): $595.50</u>
UTG: $981.15
MP: $1,028.05
CO: $262.70
BTN: $323.70

<font color="black">Preflop:</font> Hero is dealt Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (6 Players)
2 folds, <font color="red">CO raises to $12.00</font>, BTN folds, <font color="red">SB raises to $52.00</font>, <font color="red">Hero raises to $150.00</font>, CO folds, <font color="red">SB raises all-in to $460.00</font>, Hero calls $310.00

You dont need to worry about beeing transparent against an unknown guy in a game where there are tons of bad tags with similar stats to yours who will advertice for you..

I like calling here, especially since you probably hate your hand if SB push.

ditto i think a cold call looks scary enough to slow him down on the flop with ak or jj since it'll probably be three way.

Variations of this hand have been posted a number of times before. This is no real correct standard play, but calling pre is probably best.
