Default What\'s your default line for QQ in position early in $55s

Late in level 2 (15/30), 8 players left. I have ~1,100, villain has ~900. In MP, I have QQ. Villain has played few hands, none notably.

Villain raises to T125 in EP. This is slightly larger than the usual raise for this table, but I can't say if it's out of character for villain. I have QQ in MP2. What's my play? Do you play JJ any differently?

I pushed.

Comments appreciated. Thanks.

I'm not a huge fan of pushing here, although it's probably the correct move :-/ If he is TT+,AQs+,AQo+ you are a 55% favorite. If he wouldn't play tens this way, it's dead even. But maybe those ranges are way too tight, because I've seen some crazy [censored] at the $55s. I'm wondering what other people do here as well, so thanks for posting. FWIW I always push here and close my eyes.
