I would see a flop and probably dump it there. Sometimes I feel obligated to throw some money in the pot before accepting that he's probably wired up bigger.

I never lay this down to the reraise. I also never push after being reraised in cash game with QQ. I call and see where I'm at after the flop. I think you lose your stack a lot to AA-KK on that flop. Without any read I might just drop it if the villain remains confident postflop. This is just one of the biggest trap situations I can imagine.
It's not what's inside that counts. Have you seen what's inside?
Internal organs. And they're getting uglier by the minute.

Without a read, I'd flop it as suggested.

I don't think a push is right there vs most any opponent.

I happen to have notes on that guy, and you could be good sometimes here, but it's doubtful. I bet he instacalled with AA.

QQ is a cold calling hand. Also you could have gotten in less deep if you'd have raised less to begin with. Is 3.00 the standard raise here? On party I find 2.00 does the trick, and then I add .50 for any limper past the first one.

EDIT: oh yeah "Get Hooked" is a party table. I was just playing at it yesterday.

The call line against this isnt my favourite. As rondavu points out you go bust on the flop and i dont like that.
My concern here is not going bust with qq preflop OR postflop without a reason and facing a preflop reraise and then a low flop isnt a good enough for reason for me. Im not going to say that bad players do that but i will argue that its bad enough play to be avoidable.
Id 3 bet this preflop, for about a third of my stack. If opp still wants to play for stacks then, then this is an easy fold, unless opp really sucks balls. If opp calls THEN i think im happy to go bust as opp has played his hand well enough to merit it.
Im just not happy about calling teh reraise and then going bust on a low flop. It seems too easy to me without information.
