Default QQ level 1 with a short stack (33)

I lost half my stack on a bad beat on the second hand. this is 2 hands later. I'm always looking for a good amount to raise preflop in the early rounds, and if anything, it seems related to the time of day I'm playing. As this is late friday night, perhaps I should have raised more, even pushing preflop might not have been bad. On the flop, I'm either way ahead or way behind, but I'm not sure what to do when it's checked to me. Any bet basically pot commits me, but I don't want to give a free card either. What's your line, before the flop and on the flop?

33+3 no limit tourney. 9 players left.

UTG: 800
UTG+1: 755
UTG+2: 930
CO+2: 775
CO+1: 745
CO: 345
Hero: 400
SB: 1520
BB: 1730

BB posts 15
SB posts 10

Hero is dealt (Q [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], Q [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img])

Preflop:
3 folds, co+2 calls, co+1 calls, co calls, hero raises t75, sb calls, bb calls, co+2 calls, 1 fold, co calls

Flop (J [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 5 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] J [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]) pot: t390
SB checks, BB checks, co+2 checks, co checks, hero?

This should always be the ALL IN becase I am thinking you have the best hand but unfourtuneate if bad guy have the jack.

i dont see you not putting all your chips in play here. checking now would be pretty awful (A or K may hit), so put them in now.

you should not play the 30s if this is a tough move for you.
