Default 11$+R+A - QQ lategame

Ok, ~20 Players remaining, we are already in the money.
we got a raise here from a player who did nothing freaky before, I guess he is tight. his raise size is very scary for me. In my opinion my only options are to push or fold here, playing for set value makes no sense. whats our play?

TEXAS_HOLDEM, NO_LIMIT, T4-50938543-227
played at "Sioux City" for USD TC from 2007-10-01 16:08 until 2007-10-01 16:09
Seat 1: xas70 ($172,384 in chips)
Seat 2: Taavi1 ($169,083 in chips)
Seat 3: Lazze83 ($119,776 in chips)
Seat 5: HERO ($149,071 in chips)
Seat 6: supervizor ($57,605 in chips)
Seat 8: Dolly102 ($75,380 in chips)
Seat 9: WESTBLEEDER ($165,612 in chips)
Seat 10: AAwtf119 ($111,654 in chips)
ANTES/BLINDS
supervizor posts blind ($6,000), Dolly102 posts blind ($12,000).

Dealt to HERO: QQ

PRE-FLOP
WESTBLEEDER folds, AAwtf119 folds, xas70 calls $12,000, Taavi1 bets $40,000, Lazze83 folds, HERO ???

why do you think the bet size is scary - looks like a standard raise of 3,5xBB after one limper.

with QQ this is an easy push here.

Correct me if you do not think this is an accurate range but I put him at something like 77+, AJs+, AQo+. Against that range you have 55% equity with JJ, which means if I am playing to win I am probably shoving. Also, correct me if my math is wrong, I think it is right.

Gotta shove here. Unless this is a complete nit with an AK JJ+ range this is an easy push. Well Played

Think about his range for raising like that and how QQ plays against it.

You'll find that an overwhelming amount of the time QQ is very +eV for shipping it all in here.
