Default $11 - First hand of tourney, large PP (JJ-AA) Do I call the push?

Party $11 - I 4 table and this happened on 2 of the 4 tables at the same time, on the first hand of the tourney

Table 1: JJ, I raise to 75, villain re-raised to 200ish, I push, he calls.

Table 2: QQ, I raise to 75, villain pushes all in, I call.

What SHOULD I be doing in this situation? What does the villain have? Ak, AQs at worst probably, but a PP is most likely, hopefully lower then mine, but could be anything from 1010 to AA.

I know I can still get away from the second hand, as I have only 75 chips in the pot when he pushes, whereas I can just call his 200 and see a flop in the first hand.

Do I risk that I am beat already and fold these, or try and double up at the begining of the tourney and try and parlay that into a big lead in chips?

Thanks in advance for the thoughts.

Oh, and In hand 1 villain had AA and in hand 2 villain had KK, both times I did not improve and lost.
