Default Re: QQ from SB facing raise and reraise

I really don't like pushing here as I don't think I'll get a call from many hands that I want a call with, If I am raising it is to 12ish (followed by a push on any non flow without A or K). I think I am most likely ahead here and pushing is just the scared way to play it. Although he didn't appear to be very good I hadn't seen anything super crazy from the button. MAYBE (but slim) I could get a coin flip from AK from the button and maybe JJ, anything worse is stretching it . In general these players don't play as bad as people at foxwoods pre-flop.

Anyway on the flop I thought I might have a tiny bit of fold equity so I went for the check-raise push. I think in general this is not a bad move but feel free to try and convince me otherwise. This time I ran into two hands that I had 0 fold equity against.
