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

This is a hypothetical question.

Say you're in the CO with two red Q's, 1st level, blinds 10/20.

An UTG player you have no read on (treat him as standard) raises to 80 and it's folded to you. What's your standard play?

i would imagine its start level 1. and in that case i would make it about 240 or so to go, and fold if he pushes.

This information is necessary due to blind structures, starting chips, and level of play.

I raise if I have two red queens, flat call if I have one red/one black, and lay it down if I have two measly black ones - they never bring good luck.

Hard to do anything too terrible here except for folding. I generally raise but depending on blind structures and stack sizes (since i dont know what site its from) and other factors calling is a reasonable alternative.
