Because not every donk is paying attention to other people's ranges? Not to mention they'll shove 99-JJ, AQ there as well.

Given your scoop on the two players, it's not an easy decision, but I'd go all-in here. It's early, and there is a decent chance that neither of the players has AA or KK. If UTG has AK here, and he's as good as the stats indicate, he'll be hesitant to put his money in after two shoves.

Bigjoe wouldn't fold QQ in anything under 109's (baring bubble situations). Bigjoe's word is gospel.

I had almost this exact same situation earlier today with QQ in MP except UTG limped, I standard raised, SB went all in and UTG called. I almost posted the hand, but long story short I felt I had to call. Ended up with SB having AA and UTG having A9o ??!!??...and as poker justice would have it the A9 took it down with a straight.
