QQ good enough against overshove from unknown villain with 61bb stack size on NL10?

PokerStars - $0.10 NL FAST (6 max) - Holdem - 6 players
Hand converted by PokerTracker 4

BTN: 100 BB
SB: 61.5 BB
BB: 100 BB
UTG: 109.8 BB
MP: 155.4 BB
Hero (CO): 135.5 BB

SB posts SB 0.5 BB, BB posts BB 1 BB

Pre Flop: (pot: 1.5 BB) Hero has Q♦ Q♥

fold, fold, Hero raises to 3 BB, fold, SB raises to 61.5 BB and is all-in, fold, Hero calls 58.5 BB

Spoiler

Flop: (124 BB, 2 players) 2♠ 6♥ 7♠

Turn: (124 BB, 2 players) K♠

River: (124 BB, 2 players) T♠

SB shows A♣ 4♠ (Flush, King High)
(Pre 30%, Flop 19%, Turn 25%)
Hero shows Q♦ Q♥ (One Pair, Queens)
(Pre 70%, Flop 81%, Turn 75%)
SB wins 118.4 BB

I would insta-call. Usually a shove like that (not full stacked) is AK, AQ, AJs, some suited connectors + all pairs except AA&KK and shitty bluffy hands from villians on tilt or other idiots. Seeing his stack of 61bb, he falls in those last 2 categories.

This is a trivial call with 60bb effective. It can be anything.
That runout hurts.

Figured as much. I just think my largest leak is calling / shoving over large raises too loosely with the worse part of tier 1 hands like QQ, JJ AKx. So I thought I'd better ask.

I think the runout is amusing; definitely more interesting than him just hitting an A :P

Straight shoving pre-flop is either tilt or fishy stuff. So unless you know he only does this with AA/KK, QQ will perform great in most spots.

Standard call indeed. Most players aren't shoving like this with better and indeed the run out is nasty, but on long run you win a lot of money against him.

Against the stack size and his position is an snap call
