NL50: QQ OOP 3bet pot vs aggression NL50: QQ OOP 3bet pot vs aggression

Early into my session, no reads or stats.

I normally play full ring but recently started tryout out some 6max, so I'm not sure how aggressively I should be playing QQ, is this a hand that I want to be 4betting pre?
My plan post flop was to c/r ai any safe flop, but then both players shoved, are they going to show up with weaker overpairs / draws often enough here to call?

BTN: $69.00
SB: $97.50
BB: $51.50
Hero (UTG): $50.00
CO: $86.30

Pre Flop: Hero is UTG with Q Q
Hero raises to $2, CO calls $2, BTN raises to $8.50, 2 folds, Hero calls $6.50, CO calls $6.50

Flop: ($26.25) 4 6 3 (3 players)
Hero checks, CO bets $23.50, BTN raises to $60.50 all in, Hero ???

As played, you have a pretty easy fold once CO bets and BTN pushes. I doubt you have the best hand between the three of you. But I think a 4-bet to $20 preflop would have been better than calling. If BTN then pushes (and CO folds), you are facing about a $50 call for a $90 pot (1.8:1), so you would need about 36% equity to call. Vs KK+/AK, you have about 40% equity, so you can call for a marginally +EV, or fold for a marginally -EV depending on your taste for variance. If he's pusing AQ/JJ, then you'll want a read to that effect, and calling the all-in is easy at that point since vs JJ+/AQ+ you have 51% equity.

flop is close, i dont think CO has you beat but button might, i guess id call QQ fold JJ but can be convinced otherwise
