I looked at the chip counts, they didnt add up to 1500x9. I know, I'm a genius.

too hard to tell what those weak raises mean. sometimes it is the nuts, sometimes nothing.

Weak ass underbet on the flop,
Weak ass overbet on the turn.
You could have done the same thing with a t400 bet on the flop without commiting your stack.

Check Raiser

Pre-Flop - 4xBB good bet for QQ
Flop - MP2 bet of 30 is pretty much the same as a check and kind of useless. Your bet of 150 into a 510 pot is giving odds too good to turn down by any drawing hand (660-150 = 4.4:1) and does nothing to thin the field (except to a really solid player who would think the bet too inviting and smell a rat!). You should raise but not less than 400 giving 2.2:1 odds - it would problably win the pot right there but if re-raised you know the raiser has an Ace. Calls would be mistakes for opps drawing to a str8 (bad odds and you have QQ running interferance) or possibly an A-x with a mid to low kicker. MP2 acts like he has J or T given the feeble 30 bet and the sm blind is probably on a str8 draw or also has J or T but either may be slowplaying Ax.
Turn - I don't like the all-in but that's the mess you're in by not betting the flop to you advantage. Risking your life here with what was close to a semi-bluff worked out but isn't my prefered course of action given your weak bet on the flop. If one of the two is tagging along or trapping with an Ace, then here is a good chance to flush him out on the river - check! You risk the free card but then you practically did that on the flop anyway and the turn card is a blank. Any ace will bet out on the river and you can then call or fold according to your reads. As it was, they both folded so the check-raise was not being played against you (so neither had an ace) and you stay alive instead of being busted out. Given this knowledge, it's probable you could have won this on the flop with a 400 - 500 bet and not have to worry about aces or str8 draws. There's nothing wrong with taking the easy road or making easy decisions if given the option - you were and didn't..
