WWYD? 3 All-Ins infront of you...

This happened in our homgame tonight (All high school kids, BUT, all understand poker enough to not be too out of line). Play has been VERY weak-tight up to this point, as most of them just wanna make the money. I've been raisng about once a round to stay afloat from my run of cold cards (3/4 of those times have been on my button).

$30 Buy-in, T5,000 (Started with 12 players, 6 at each table)
Final Table
7 handed
Blinds 300-600 (No ante)
SB with ~7,000
Hero is in BB with ~11,000
UTG with 4,400
UTG+1 with ~4,500
MP1 with ~6,000
CO (Chip Leader) with ~15,000
Button with ~11,000

Pre-Flop:
UTG goes all in for 4.4k (He hasn't played a hand the whole FT), UTG+1 folds, MP1 (goes into the tank but) folds, CO re-raises all-in for 15k, Button folds, SB calls all in, Hero has Q Q .

Do YOU call all in here, with 3 players all in in front of you?

Re: WWYD? 3 All-Ins infront of you...

Even if you can't be sure someone has AA or KK, you know that either UTG or CO likely has AK. Since it's a tournament, live to fight another day. Why risk your whole stack to be against over cards, possibly an over pair, or an under pair that could trip up?

Unless you are feeling really lucky, fold and let the smoke clear.
I know it's queens, but too many hands to beat.

I'll wait for a few more responses before I post the results... which are pretty insane, but true.

Fold. This guy hasn't played a hand. All-in preflop. He's got bullets or cowboys.
I would be surprised if he had anything else.

Lay it down for sure. Even with AA or KK I'd be inclined to lay it down as even though you'd be the favourite, your chance of winning against 3 other players is so reduced that I would rather let it go.

Prepare to be.

With all that action in front of me I said, "Wow! I hope don't have A-A..."

I looked down at the corners really fast and saw Q-Q. Leaned back in my chair and said, "Wow! Seriously...?" I folded them face up. And some were surprised, I don't know why...

UTG - AQ
MP1 (who went into the tank, but eventually folded) - 7 7
CO - K K
SB - 9 9
BB - I folded Q Q

WOW. That's a lot of pairs for 7 handed. SHOCKINGLY the K-K held up, and he busted both players to take a HUGE chip lead with 5 to go.

Re: WWYD? 3 All-Ins infront of you...

Nothing shocking about it. KK should have held up. It's a made hand and a favorite going to the flop. The closest hand to him is A/Qo which is (in this case) ~2.5:1 dog.

Your Q/Q is also a dog against 9/9 in this case.
(go ahead- poker stove it... I'll wait)

Edit:
Easy fold. Next hand please.
