Default The preflop massive overbet: range?

Seen this a few times in NL50 and NL100 and I'm not experinced enough to know quite what to make of it yet.

Example from today:

NL100
button raises to 4
Hero reraises 10
Relatively Unknown shoves in 80.

I folded QQ here and was chided by one of my mentors, QQ-AA generally considered worth shoving a buyin into the pot here?

First thing's first - NEVER, EVER AKo/AKs. I learnt this the hard way.

I'm calling AA,KK only, but I don't like variance. QQ is maybe marginally profitable, but high variance, so I pass. Either way it doesn't really matter what you do with QQ, this situation will happen so rarely it will barely affect your winrate.

With that preflop action someone *should* have QQ beaten here, the fold is fine.

You still have button to act and it could get really rather nasty being squeezed between these two.

I dont want to be a massive underdog in this hand or flipping coins with these people.
