Default Pokerstars $30 + 3 deep stack pot limit hold em - Is QQ good here?

We're pretty deep into the event and pretty close to the bubble. Top 27 get paid and I think we were around 30 left.

Don't really know much about villian, but he seems pretty aggresive once he's in a hand. I think my table image is seen as moderately LAG.

PokerStars (7 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: 2+2 Forums)

Preflop: Hero is MP2 with Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]. SB posts a blind of 300.
<font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises 1200 to 1800</font>, <font color="#666666">3 folds</font>, <font color="#CC3333">BB raises raises 3400 to 5200</font>, Hero calls 3400.

Flop: 5[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 9[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 8[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">BB bets 5400</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero - ???</font>

This seems to me this is a WA/WB situation. I'm dominated by a set or AA/KK, but i'm beating pretty much everything else.

Should I be reraising the flop? If so how much? Or is his play already telling me I'm beat?

Knowing stack sizes would be good here.

I'm probably felting this, but it really depends how deep you are.

I checked my Pokertracker on SunTzuRep and didn't find any info on him. The only thing I saw him do was stay on top of the leaderboard the whole time,so...I would play the hand carefully. Was he tight? Loose?

he seemed a little loose, but I hadn't played all that many hands with him so I'm not too sure.

I thought everyone was playing a little loose,considering the stack sizes compared to the blinds. I jjust hung in there, maybe thats a good point if your just trying to cash. If he was playing loose, I would push in on him. He was probably holding an Ace or two high cards.What do u think?

By the way. The top 18 finished in the money out of 126. Pretty good cash percentage. That's like the top 15%. It will be a pretty good one to play next time

I shoved the flop since i thought he was loose, and he called with KK.

I went down to almost nothing in chips and managed to squeeze into the money.
