Default $16- QQ First hand

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t20 (9 handed) by Hand Converter CG

Button (t1500)
SB (t1500)
BB (t1500)
UTG (t1500)
UTG+1 (t1500)
MP1 (t1500)
Hero (t1500)
MP3 (t1500)
CO (t1500)

Preflop: Hero is MP2 with Q[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img].
<font color="#666666">3 folds</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to t80</font>, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Button raises to t220</font>, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to t1500</font>, Button calls t1280 (All-In).

Flop: (t3030) 7[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 4[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 5[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players, 1 all-in)</font>

Turn: (t3030) 9[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players, 1 all-in)</font>

River: (t3030) 6[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players, 1 all-in)</font>

Final Pot: t3030

Is this a fold? Instinct tells me this is a fold, but can I lay this down?

I can't image folding QQ at a $16.

there's no folding this at this level to like 98% of villains... maybe if he is a really good 2+2er I can find a flat call or fold.

I don't even consider folding unless I recognize they are a 2p2er, then I think about it.

220 is a very bad raise size for you from a "do they have it" perspective, but even then I usually couldn't get away. The best way is to sharkscope and fold every time if they're positive.
