Party $11. My thought with the initial call was I would bet big if no overcards came on the flop. But then a player behind me raises big which leaves me in a strange position. Should have I folded, simply called or pushed as I did? What about the first call of the 50...bad play also? What should I have done there in terms of how much to raise?

Id definitely reraise preflop.

I dunno, Id raise to like 300...but you are basically going allin since you have to call any reraise at that point. Going allin to begin with is fine too, but I want to try to encourage some action from weaker hands.
At the $11 sit and gos, people sometimes don't realize that raising to 300 there is the same thing as moving allin.
btw I believe that if you go allin with QQ, youll often be called by worse hands....more often than called by AA-KK. I could be wrong though.

Re-raise the first bet. The all-in is fine. MP2 has in insane amount of chips for Level 1 in a $11 SNG. This is indicative of crazy LAGgy play. Those kind of players don't last long.

I don't see how it is beneficial not to reraise UTG. QQ is not a hand you want to play in a multiway pot, and by calling, you're setting up precisely the situation you don't want. You're lucky it got reraised so you could get all in (as there's no way you're folding to a reraise without an EXTREMELY strong read).

Why would you ever fold QQ here?

One mistake: not pushing preflop.

Yeah probably in these tournaments you should just move allin preflop, as opposed to raising to 300 or so.
