Default stars $11 9 person.. flush draw and two overs early...standard?

I think this is pretty standard but want to see if anyone has an alternate line...preflop was loose but I was running well and it was three way...I'm pretty sure that the goal is to get it in on this flop so I led big...figure it gave me some fold equity and my hand was enough to call the reraise...

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t30 (9 handed)

MP2 (t1580)
MP3 (t830)
CO (t1200)
Button (t1595)
SB (t2495)
BB (t1510)
Hero (t1760)
UTG+1 (t1030)
MP1 (t1500)

Preflop: Hero is UTG with JH QH
Hero calls t30
UTG+1 raises to t120
6 folds
BB calls t90
Hero calls t90

Flop: (t375) 5S 6H 7H (3 players)
BB checks
Hero bets t300
UTG+1 raises to t910 all in
BB folds
Hero calls t610

ill throw in my opinion for what it's worth...
Fold preflop for starters,
as played i don't know, maybe a 200 bet and fold to raise

Preflop is awful. Dont limp UTG with QJs and when you had the chance you should fold to the raise. 'Running well' is no excuse.

I wouldnt advise semi bluffing a draw in an $11, I dont think its profitable. Sure you have odds to call on the draw, but getting all in on this flop is awful this early in the tourney.

Fold this PF.



EDIT: Why not go for a c/r against the PF raiser?

Fold pf first time, folding to the raise wouldnt be bad either. You are dominated by a few hands that would be raising pf. On the flop I would rather check/call a smaller bet to try and get there cheap, prolly folding on the turn when dude bets again. Your J and Q arent really good outs here so I wouldnt be to excited my hand if I hit one.
