QQ first hand from the BB

[hurlyburly]

I'd like input on two things, please. Did I play this correctly preflop and was my push good with this being first hand:

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t20 (6 handed)

Button (t1500)
SB (t1500)
Hero (t1500)
UTG (t1500)
MP <font color="purple">(Villain)</font> (t1500)
CO (t1500)

Preflop: Hero is BB with Q/images/graemlins/heart.gif, Q/images/graemlins/club.gif.
UTG folds, MP <font color="purple">(Villain)</font> calls t20, CO folds, Button folds, SB completes, <font color="CC3333">Hero raises to t80</font>, MP <font color="purple">(Villain)</font> calls t60, SB folds.

Flop: (t180) T/images/graemlins/club.gif, J/images/graemlins/diamond.gif, 6/images/graemlins/heart.gif <font color="blue">(2 players)</font>
<font color="CC3333">Hero bets t180</font>, <font color="CC3333">Villain raises to t560</font>, <font color="CC3333">Hero raises to t1420</font>, Villain calls t860 (All-In).

Turn: (t3020) T/images/graemlins/diamond.gif <font color="blue">(2 players, 1 all-in)</font>

River: (t3020) A/images/graemlins/spade.gif <font color="blue">(2 players, 1 all-in)</font>

Final Pot: t3020

I think you played it fine preflop. 4bb raise is usual in this situation with only one limper. His play back on the flop doesn't make much sense. There's no threat on the board except, perhaps, a straight (but doubtful) so he must be doing it to try to get more of my chips, unless he's a total fish and thinks AJ or something will hold up here, and I'm making a play at it with AK. The only hand that really worries me here is J-10, I really can't see him making this play with a set. Having said that, with 1500 then there's room yet to fold, and outplay this joker later. But you couldn't have asked for much of a better flop with QQ. Maybe just a flat call to his raise and see his action on the turn?

Tourney buy in is important info here, as it gives some clue to the level of fish. I think your play looks okay.

This is a 6-handed $36+3.

I felt like I've been overplaying QQ PF by bringing it in for a 120-150 raise, and this was my first try at trimming that back to 4xBB. Thanks for the feedback.
