Option 2 sucks. If you make it 66, you are indeed bluffing with QQ.

Call and play poker.

Call and hope the flop comes Q high. :-) Without reads on Villain a limp-rr is almost always AA/KK. By the size of the raise it doesn't look like he wants you to go away either.

On an A/K high flop I'll probably check-fold. On a low card flop I probably check/call flop and check/fold to a large turn bet.

I would reraise here all the time, since it's a good chance that CO thinks you might be on a steal and wants to test your hand. Also, playing OOP without any more info on what CO might hold is in this matter really hard.

Yeah, this is a really weird hand. Reraising preflop creates a very difficult situation on a K high flop. I guess he had AA?
