You're only 125BB deep and that's important. How your opponents play straddled pots is on you, but you also went out of your way to say he has 'tricky' plays whatever that means. If everything is truly so narrow first, third, and fourth to act in a straddled pot then you have an easy ckf on the turn facing shove with just about your whole range which actually is fine if he only 1 combo of AK that bets there as you outlined. I don't buy that he's full on 3b pre with JJ and bet shoving JJ post too.
As for pre, you have an opportunity w QQ to get HU IP against a tight player. If she 4bets you then lol fold, if she calls, then play against that range, but what you do avoid is having to play post with trash relative position if others call behind. If you 3b and he 4b you next, you can still maneuver through that spot pretty cleanly depending on his sizing and ho you make up his 4bets.
All in all, you flopped an OP, but in a spot where ranges are grossly narrow strong. If you're flatting QQ it's to keep him wide enough to where he might bet shove with AK/JJ/other stuff, but I just gii once SB folds and expect him to fold pre a whole bunch.
