Default Re: 1st level, late position, QQ, facing a UTG raise

Btw difference between stars+party here is important. Id never want to raise to 300 in a $30 s+g on party and then fold for my last 500 to some idiot bozo with K7s. On party tournaments with T800 I'd reraise with the idea of calling an allin. In the $200s I might play it differently altogether.
On stars it depends. I'd probably fold preflop if they move allin. I'd have to be there to know what I'd really do. Sometimes you just get the feeling someone just got done watching WSOP rebroadcast on ESPN and wants to move allin every hand.

I typically play on UB at the low level 5+.5 where you get 1000 chips and the first level is 5/10 not 10/20. This gives you a lot more play. Here assuming someone bet the pot, I'd often reraise the pot (which is only about 1/8 of my stack at the first level assuming the action described above) with QQ in the first level. Sometimes I'll call to hope for the set/overpair. I don't really want a reraise all in against me as that could be any of a number of hands some that I'm dominating some that are dominating me, most frequently the coin flip AK IME. If I did call reraise and got reraised back all in by the original raiser I used to autocall as this was often lower pocket pairs, Ax x>=9, etc. Lately, thanks I think to the $1+.1 getting the really terrible players, I've seen this be a stronger range of hands more often even at my low buyin level.
