Default Re: QQ on an A high flop.

In some situations, it's right not to reraise with QQ. These situations are against good players who can put you on hands and especially players that you play against frequently. Here, you should always reraise because there's no benefit to randomizing your play, and the small benefit that you get from disguising your hand a little doesn't outweigh the benefit of extra money you get in preflop with the best hand in position (and the times you just win the pot uncontested).

I actually think a flop fold is correct. The reason is that you're not really getting 3:1 on your money on the flop, as you're almost always going to have to call bets of at least t85 on the turn and river, making your real best case scenario odds ~1.3:1.

I really hate your river raise.

Keep in mind that in the early stages of a donkey-filled tournament, these small bets are essentially the standard, so you're probably better off thinking that villain is a donkey who decided to bet than that villain is an average/bad player who decided to bet small.
