    Default Call with QQ and no reads?

    This might be a dumb question but I'll ask anyway.

    I 3bet as UTG is a big fish who has called numerous 3bets OOP and I'm looking to build the pot with a good hand.

    This is villains 3rd hand at the table. He folded his blinds in the previous 2. Mathematically I think it's a call but it is a 4bet to call with no reads so I'm unsure.

    PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $0.10 BB (6 handed) - PokerStars Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com

    CO ($8.78)
    Button ($3.85)
    SB ($10.40)
    BB ($4)
    UTG ($14.24)
    Hero (MP) ($12.28)

    Preflop: Hero is MP with Q, Q
    UTG bets $0.30, Hero raises to $1, 1 fold, Button raises to $3.85 (All-In), 3 folds, Hero calls $2.85

    Flop: ($8.15) A, 8, 5 (2 players, 1 all-in)

    Turn: ($8.15) J (2 players, 1 all-in)

    River: ($8.15) 4 (2 players, 1 all-in)

    Total pot: $8.15 | Rake: $0.40

    From pokerstove -
    equity win tie pots won pots tied
    Hand 0: 39.857% 39.64% 00.22% 19005028 104399.00 { QdQh }
    Hand 1: 60.143% 59.92% 00.22% 28730686 104399.00 { KK+, AKs, AKo }

    Is he really 4betting his 3rd hand at the table with AK though? At these stakes I think it is definitely a genuine possibility. However, take that out AKo and our equity drops to 27% and take out AKs and our equity drops to 18.2%

    I believe we have 34.9% equity to call.

    Anyone else making this call with no reads into a 4bet pot or should I learn to give up Queens in situations like this?
