Default QQ against pre-flop re-raise

Unfortunately, I don't have the HH on my laptop, but here we go... No specific reads on any opponent (haven't seen anyone playing out of line). PP $100 (0.5/1)

UTG limps, UTG+2 limps, MP limps, I raise with to $7 with QQ from CO. Blinds fold and so does UTG. Now, UTG+2 re-pops to $25... MP folds...

Fold here and give him credit for having AA (or KK)? Call and fold unimproved flop?

I fold here. The limp/re-raise from an early position reaks of an AA or maybe KK. The only thing you can hope he has is a stone-cold bluff, perhaps thinking you were trying to steal the pot with all those limpers... but unlikely. No I fold here without any reads that villian is A. a donk or B. has a track record of making this move often.

Overlimping with AA is a weird play, but I still fold here.

Calling, I think, is the worst you can do here. Hitting a Q is the only real improvement you're going to make - there's no set value in calling here.

Without reads, and assuming you've both got stack of around $100 - just fold.

Had this been a (close-to) allin for villain, I would call or push him allin since there's plenty of idiots who would make this play when shortstacked with a much wider range of hands.

You're right... We both had stacks around 100, I had him slightly covered.
