There is no way I would check/raise in this situation. You either have to bet it out on the flop, at least to see his hand strength, or fold to his bet. Q 4 o/s is not a strong enough hand, to risk 1/3 of your chips after a bet. Unless this kid has been playing extremely loose on the button the entire tourny, and has been laying down to reraises.
