Default Should I have folded QQ pf here?

Firstly, apologies for not knowing how to post proper HH.

Full ring 2/4c
I am utg with QQ and make it 24c to go (I have around $5),
utg+1 reraises and makes it 70c to go. It folds round to me.
I check his stats and see that he has been seeing 5% of flops. He is by far the tightest player at the table.
With this information I came to the conclusion that his range of hands could only be AA KK AK, so completely dominated by 2, and a coinflip on 1. He started the hand with $2, so only had $1.30 after his reraise. I didnt feel I had the implied odds to call to try and hit my Q.
I folded. Was this correct or do you think I am playing too tight?

What do you think villains range of hands could be here. With those pf stats, him just limping utg +1 would indicate a strong hand. But reraising a raise from utg, I could not put him on anything else.
Even if the range of hands I put him on were spot on, do you still recommend not folding?

97 hands. Of these he twice had AA, once had AKs and once had KQ. The other 93 hands he saw a flop 2.15% of the time

Don't fold.

You could even call your set value, even though QQ is way to strong here.

If chances of flopping a set are 8/1, wouldnt we both need stacks of around $40 to make this call correct to try and hit a set?

Ok, by reading these replies I get the feeling I am being viewed as playing too tight, which maybe true.
I would like to know if it is possible to put this person on such a limited range of hands. If so, then surely playing out this hand must be -EV.
If it is not possible to limit his range so much how should I have played?, reraise all in or see a flop and push if no A or K comes?
Where are you Pzhon, I always look forward to hearing what you have to say?

You made a read and went with it. Unless information comes your way that proves you are wrong, ie you see his cards, don't question your reads for no reason.

Would I have called and saw a flop? Yes. UNLESS I had a read on the guy and thought my hand wasn't good.

Two useful stats would be his preflop raise % (you seem to have quoted his VP$P) and his 3-bet %. If both are really light, then I might make the same fold. In this case those stats ARE your read more or less and I would go with them in general without better information. But honestly, with a VP$P of just 5%, I can't imagine he raises more than 2% of the time, and certainly 3-bets less than that. His range with those stats is JJ+ imo, and JJ would occur with the least frequency in the distribution of his range here.

Meh, I agree with the laydown. But I am kinda weak-tightish in the small games (something like 15/5/2.2 or so ) so take my advice with a grain of salt.

Then again, it is kinda hard to be anything but weak-tightish when you are surrounded by 75/35/inf...
