I hate this line,
basically, as soon as you 4-bet, you have to get it in.
So either you flat his 3-bet and re-evaluate otf, or you raise like you did and then get it in.
I prefer the 4-bet gii tho, folding QQ here is really really nitty imo.
Villain is a random, we're not that deep yet, and he could easily have a hand like 88/TT/JJ/AK/AQ/AJ and maybe even AT or 88.

With no information on the player I think I would have just flatted his 3bet and see what the flop brings. I don't see him 5bet shoving with anything other than AK, AQ, AA, KK, QQ unless you had reads on him that he would do that with worse hands.

I would not 4bet with the intention to fold QQ...How close are you to the bubble? How far away are you? Obiviously villain 5bet Jammed so I mean I don't believe ppl that deep 5bet jam less than QQ+ so it's QQ/KK/AA/AKs/AKo/AQo and maybe JJ...

My point is I'm not 4betting period to fold QQ I'm either Flatting QQ and seeing a flop or 4betting to call...That's just me though (It could be wrong), yet this also depends on player, and since you have no reads at all, I'm just flatting and seeing the flop and how they play it...or Jamming pre with it

He is 75bb's deep with a ton of re-shove stacks on the table.

I would have called the 3-bet only, I don't like the 4-bet. My main reason is we have position on villain...

Calling the 3-bet is better than 4-bet/folding, because if we call the 3-bet we keep his range wide. People don't 5-bet shove light at these stakes.
