Default Call or Fold QQ

Half hour into a Party 30+3 late lastnight. Hero is MP with QQ and raises 5xBB. CO pushes which will put me all-in.

I started the hand with $920 and CO has been involved in more than his fair share of pots and is sitting on $2000 or somewhere around there.

Call or fold?

Thanks.

My first question is: What were the blinds. My assumption is they were very low compared to everyone's stack, so defending the raise isn't all THAT important. You're still alive to play another hand if you fold.

With only 1/2 hour in, it doesn't appear you're getting a good read on CO.

We know, however, he raised your 5(BB) raise to put you all in. He must have a hand.

Now, what is it? Is he gambling with a medium PP, figuring you for AK? Of course the only hands you really fear are KK and AA. I don't think you put him on those without a read.

Frankly, I think you have to call the all-in. You are more than likely a favorite. But I really wish you had a read on him.

Thanks guys. It sucked being bounced out that early, but at least I know I made the right move. BTW, he had KK.
