Interesting early tourney hand

Blinds 15-30, I'm in MP with Q-Q.

New player to the table, UTG+1 raises to 60, I reraise to 200.

Button (~5000 chips) calls. He'd been playing a lot of hands, and showing nothing.

Solid, tight player in BB raises to 800, leaving himself with 650. Initial raiser folds, what is your move?

Incidentally, K-K was my first thought on the BBs reraise, just a gut feeling. I used all of my time and folded, as did the big stack on the button.

Wow that sux, I would think AK is pushing here so if he is soild givin the action I would say AA-KK. Tough spot to lay down but givin the action I think your QQ is no good.

What's your stack size? I think you've got to fold unless your stack is really big or really small given your read that BB is tight.
