Default 3+r Trny Hand

This is from memory cuase im at work and im too hungover and tired to use hand converter so sry for the crappy post.

Blinds 800/1600. Just got moved so i have no reads. 10 people left before the money. Avg stack is around 35-37k.
I have 30k. UTG+1 or maybe UTG+2 i have QQ. Open for 4800. Folds around to BB who has 45k. He thinks for a long time, may have even went a few seconds into his clock. Then pushes all in.

Given the amount of time he took i wasnt sure if he was thinking about pushing me around cuase of the bubble or he was trying to make it look like that cuase he had AA-KK. Also i didnt want to gamble against A-K. Anything else i wouldnt mind.

While i was pondering the call, i knew that if i folded i would prob get blinded down to a very shortstack before i picked up a decent hand to gamble with.
Call/Fold? Also, how likely would someone that has me covered be pushing me around with something like tt-jj or aj-aq? Am i playing too scared?

YOu're wrong; you're happy to gamble against AK there. You need to win those at times like this to compete for first. Beat him to the pot.

IMO these are the hands and the percentages I think he has these hands that he would push at you:

15% chance he has AA-KK
45% chance he has JJ-77
15% chance he has AK
15% chance he has AJ
10% he is bluffing with any two

I left out AQ because you have two Queens.

Using this range you are a 65% favorite to win and you are getting 1.3 to one pot odds on top of that to call.
