Default QQ strategery preflop and on (results not as important here as theory)

Both opponents are new (only been around one orbit), and this hand came up. Now, this particular hand played itself, but different machinations of it could cause situations that I'd like some input on. First the hand:

Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em, $0.50 BB (9 handed) converter

saw flop|<font color="C00000">saw showdown</font>

UTG ($6.14)
<font color="C00000">Hero ($51.09)</font>
MP1 ($21.50)
<font color="C00000">MP2 ($5.85)</font>
<font color="C00000">MP3 ($24)</font>
CO ($52.84)
Button ($20.75)
SB ($23.45)
BB ($23.40)

Preflop: Hero is UTG+1 with Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img].
UTG calls $0, <font color="CC3333">Hero raises to $2</font>, <font color="666666">1 fold</font>, MP2 calls $2, <font color="CC3333">MP3 raises to $9</font>, <font color="666666">4 folds</font>,50,5,50, UTG folds, Hero calls $6.50, MP2 calls $3.35 (All-In).

Flop: ($25.10) Q[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 6[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 2[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="blue">(3 players, 1 all-in)</font>
<font color="CC3333">Hero bets $15</font>, MP3 calls $15 (All-In).

Turn: ($55.10) 4[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="blue">(3 players, 2 all-in)</font>

River: ($55.10) T[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="blue">(3 players, 2 all-in)</font>

Final Pot: $55.10
<font color="green">Main Pot: $18.80, between Hero, MP2 and MP3.</font> &gt; <font color="white">Pot won by Hero ($18.80).</font>
<font color="green">Pot 2: $36.30, between Hero and MP3.</font> &gt; <font color="white">Pot won by Hero ($36.30).</font>

Results in white below: <font color="white">
Hero shows Qh Qd (three of a kind, queens).
MP2 shows Qs Ks (one pair, queens).
MP3 shows Ad Ah (one pair, aces).
Outcome: Hero wins $55.10. </font>

Now the situational questions:

1) The calling of the reraise PF was appropriate, correct? (I cant see pushing being right, but I'm still a NL newb, so I may very well be wrong.)

2) Whats the play if the flop comes with no card higher than a jack and it's rainbow? 2-suited? monotone?

3) I'm assuming that it's check fold time if an ace or king comes without a queen. But, whats the plan if the flop comes with an ace and a queen? a king and a queen? all three? do suits come into play heavily in any of these situations?

I think that's more or less it... and more than likely too much... but I'd like some feedback nonetheless. Still trying to wrap my head around all this NL wackiness [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img].

Thanks in advance,
TRWIII
