Default FTP $10 QQ on a low board facing heavy action

SB is an idiot calling station that could have any two pretty cards. MP 3 has played a lot of hands early but has not seem too out of line. I would also appreciate comments preflop. I usually flat call with QQ and having position.

Full Tilt Poker No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t30 (9 handed) Hand History converter Courtesy of PokerZion.com

UTG+1 (t1530)
MP1 (t1380)
MP2 (t1605)
MP3 (t1380)
CO (t1200)
Hero (t1695)
SB (t1515)
BB (t1500)
UTG (t1695)

Preflop: Hero is Button with Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img].
<font color="#666666">4 folds</font>, <font color="#CC3333">MP3 raises to t105</font>, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, Hero calls t105, SB calls t90, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>.

Flop: (t345) 2[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 6[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 8[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>

I hate pre. I re-raise 100% of the time here. As played I shove flop, I can't see mucking here vs a station and a loose player.

Thanks vers
I can see that preflop is bad and feel this has been a leak. I think I tend to be somewhat passive preflop early.

If we reraise to $300 pre do we call a push?

yes. Only in very rare situations is it feasible to muck QQ pre in a $11 sng. I've done it maybe under 10 times in over 5000 sngs.

I re raise preflop. I could understand if we had AK and flat called with position but not QQ. We are re-raising to limit the field and for value.
I will call a shove with QQ. I am only at the 6.50 on stars so it's even rarer in my case to dump QQ preflop.
