Default QQ hand folded face up beginning of WSOP FT

I don't know if this is the right forum, but I thought the hand was interesting. Blinds 120K/240K/30K, both players have about 12M. Childs raises to 720 UTG, Yang reraises to 2K in 2nd position. Childs calls. The flop comes low cards. Childs bets 3K, Yang push, and Childs folds QQ face up. How do you play this if you are Childs? Do you flat call the reraise. As played, do you lead the flop? As played, do you fold to the push?

Lee Childs is simply terrible at poker.

From Pokernews.com:

Hand #9 - Hevad 'Rain' Khan has the button in seat 9, Lee Childs raises under the gun to 720,000, Jerry Yang reraises from early position to 2.5 million, and Childs calls. There is already 5.63 million in the pot.

The flop comes {7-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}, Childs bets 3 million, and Yang immediately moves all in. Childs stands up and turns around with his back to the table while he thinks. He clearly wasn't expecting Yang to push.

Jerry Yang has about 770,000 more in chips than Childs, so Childs would be calling with his tournament life at stake. Childs sits back down to the table as he thinks for about three minutes.

Childs eventually folds, showing pocket queens. Jerry Yang takes the pot worth 11.63 million.

Childs started the hand w/ about 13.2 million and Yang had roughly 13.9 million.

Yang's image (ie: raise/c-bet UTG first hand of FT, reraise BB next hand) is somehwat important here. Dubious play becomes dreadful play.

Anyway, pf fine, flop c/c or c/r. Yang's always going to bet it for us. I'd probably check-shove.

I havnt seen him play any other hands besides this, but he just cannot be good based on this one. It's that bad.

even worse when you take into account that he said yang could do that with JJ/TT when he was interviewed by Gordon on the ppv.
