Live £250+25 f/o - 54 runners, 15 left (8 at our table) blinds 1500/3000 stack 24500 (having donked 20k trying to knock someone off a hand about 45 mins ago) so average c.36k

Also - pays down to 9th = £270 going up to over £5k for 1st

Dealt QQ in BB

UTG +1 min raises to 6k - he is CL at table (c 70k) and fairly active and will raise with any pp and any 2 broadway cards plus other hands but has folded to big reraises previously

Mid position goes all in for c.35k - he has been fairly quiet but recently doubled up defending his BB with ATo

Folds round to me with my QQ and 7 BBs left - do/can/should I fold?

Additionally if my stack was 40k plus would this make the decision different?

In your stacks case there is 0 decision in my opinion. QQ is just too big here. At this stage of the tourney these hands are fantastic opportunities to get a stack. You will likely be HU and could well be in good shape. I would shove with 40k also.

Think it's an easy call. The guy who pushed may have pushed with a weaker hand than he normally would due to the raiser being active and the fact he has been folding to large reraises.

instacall. you're below average and only have 8xBB so are really looking for a double up and you aren't going to get much better than QQ to do it with. plus you don't have to worry about how you're going to get the oppo to pay you off, the money's already in the middle.

If you're thinking about passing QQ here how big does your hand need to be to get it all in?

I never thought about passing here but I did have a sense of doom and would rather in a way have pushed in to the next unopened pot.

I did call and UTG+1 folded 55 and the MP raiser had KK

Flop was all low (including a 5)
