Default QQ and fake tilting, how much to raise

5/10 online, 4 handed. Villains both have around $1100, i have them covered.

Two hands ago, the guy currently on the button made a ridiculous river call and snapped off a pretty big bluff.

The next hand I get QQ and, after raising preflop, I, trying to appear tilted, seriously overbet the pot on a J high flop, setting the guy currently UTG all in. He calls w/ KJ and hits a King.

So it looks like I'm probably pissed. In fact, a bunch of railbirds are helping me out by talking about how I must be going nuts or something.

Next hand, I'm in the SB w/ QQ. UTG raises to $40, hasn't been raising too much, button calls. I raise to...

all in, that's if you think they will call with JJ and AQ and worse which I think they will. If you are racing I'm sure you have the roll to withstand the variance but I see many worse hands calling due to your current image. If they do have AA/KK I don't see how they won't 3bet you if you raise to 150-200.

All in is 1 option, after all QQ 4 handed is a monster, I play it just like I would KK 9 handed. I'm still a bigger fan of making a normal size reraise.

I'm not a huge fan of all-in as it requires them to have a huge hand to call, but I like a raise to 200 or so... they might talk themselves into a call with some crap like JTo and then go all the way when they hit their top pair, "putting you on tilting" rather than having a hand.
