thefishtank is on a distinguished road
 moving up limits and playing at the 50-100 game at the local casino. Table is 7 handed

Hero UTG w/ Q-Q (forgot suit but it's invalid in this hand).
Stack~12k
Raises to 300

Villain MP re-raises to 900
Stack ~ 20k
I have no reads on villain 'cause he just sat down and bought in for 200BB

Fold-Fold-Fold-SB Folds
BB (short to mid stack) moves in for like 4k+ (probably close to 4.2K or something)
Been buying in for 5k for 3 times already and had been jam-folding his way through the tables. In the 2 times he got busted, he jammed w/ A-10 and 7-7. (got called by 9-9 and A-K)

Hero: Shit-Calls (this is my problem, i am in such a sucky spot here in between an unknown re-raiser and a shove in front of me. Not really worried about the short stack cause i'm definitely ahead of his entire jam range but more so worried about the re-raiser and i think this call is committing me to the hand as well because I am calling for almost half my stack here).

How will you play this?
Will you guys move in? fold? call? call-fold to a villain reraise?

Good luck!

Move all-in unless you think MP crushes QQ.

I just don't see you getting MP to make a mistake often enough on the flop to want to flat.

Sort of a shitty spot, any info at all on MP? Is he old, young? Ethnicity?

Probably have to jam, don't see how you get away from this with all the dead money there and we have shortstack crushed.
Playing big pots at small stakes.
