Default ($12) QQ in position vs. some action. Line check

Full Tilt Poker
No Limit Holdem Tournament
Blinds: t20/t40
8 players
Converter

Stack sizes:
UTG: t1500
UTG+1: t1215
MP1: t1500
MP2: t1395
Hero: t1125
Button: t1590
SB: t1800
BB: t3375

Pre-flop: (8 players) Hero is CO with Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]
<font color="#cc0000">UTG raises to t160</font>, 2 folds, MP2 calls t160 <font color="aaaaaa">(pot was t220)</font>, <font color="#cc0000">Hero raises all-in t1125</font>.

No reads on UTG raiser and MP2 is somewhat loose. Having that in mind and the fact that the pot is almost 35% of my stack already, how do you like the push? Would you play it differently if you had 1500 to start with?

Would you push with 1500 stack also? How bad it would be just to call in position then?

very standard, same with 1500 (there is already 380 in the pot).

I dont like the call even with pos. As you say there is 35% of your stack in dead moneyin the pot plus against two opponents you wont know where you are if an A or K flops. I like the push with this stack and prob with QQ just because of all the dead money plus you are prob way ahead even if you are called.
