Early in a tournament everyone at table has healthy chip stack. I get Qd8d in BB. 3 limpers and I check. Flop is Qc6d4d. What do I do?

I don't actually remember, but lets say blinds are 20/40 and everyone has between 1100 and 3000.

Fold. It's too early in the tourney, you have no reads. I bet half the pot, fold to a reraise, be scared of a call.

You are happy to pick up this small pot with your flop bet here. Otherwise you better hit your 8.

edit: Just saw the suits. Um, you want to get your money in the middle with this hand. So I'd push if reraised.

uh, you do realize that hero has a flush draw, right? there's no way i'm folding this on the flop unless there's multi-way action.

The flush draw was why I thought this hand was interesting enough to post. Does my decision depend on the size of the re-raise?

you have an extremely powerful hand on the flop, folding to a raise is completely ridiculous. 12 outs against a better queen.
people telling you to fold are the people who keep bubbling and have no idea why.
taking chances to build a big stack early is a free pass to tons of blind steals and bb walks later on.

Pot was 160 pre-flop. Lets say I raise 80 after the flop, making it 240, and someone re-raises another 240. So I don't have pot odds to call. Are you saying I've got the implied odds to make calling worthwhile because of the flush draw?
