Default ($555t) QQ Preflop

Another poster had a few choice words after this hand. I thought it was standard but I want to know what everyone thinks. Table was pretty weak and I was obviously the weakest link. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

You're probably never going to get called here by anything other than AA-KK and maybe sometimes AK/JJ but pushing seems a lot better than calling. This hand would then be a lot more interesting if you had JJ. Then (IMO) a case could be made for any of the 3 options, obviously including folding depending on who's involved.
