Default Stars $6.50 bubble spot with QQ

Over push to get dead money in the pot or let all go against shorty ?

I limped becuase i knew i was certain to get action , every hand for about 10 had been raised.

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t200 (4 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: 2+2 Forums)

BB (t1620)
Hero (t2875)
Button (t425)
SB (t8580)

Preflop: Hero is UTG with Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img].
Hero calls t200, <font color="#CC3333">Button raises to t425</font>, SB calls t325, BB calls t225, <font color="#CC3333">Hero ?

I'd raise to t500 pf but with your read, limp is fine. Definitely gotta push now though.

The only reason to limp QQ+ in eraly position is to be able to reraise which in most cases is an All-In. There is t1475 in the pot and you would add 50% to your stack if everybody just folds, but with Queens You are actually a favorite so push PF. Don't just call and let them hit their Overcard to your queens. SB and BB probably just want to eliminate the button - take advantage of this and push all your chips in the pot.

gl at the tables

PS: Even at a wild table I am raising here alot instead of just calling/slowplaying. In general I will sometimes do it with Kings or Aces and rarely with Queens, but with your read it's okay, but you should then plan on a RRAI.
