I got pocket queens early during a SnG recently, around 3rd hand or so. I raise to around 4 times BB, and an unknown player reraises to double that amount. Everyone else folds. He has position on me.

How would you respond to this?

I might add that this is micro-stakes, 1$ buy-in.

Are you playing 9 handed or 6 handed?

Either way I agree with B2B, shove here. If you are flipping vs AK then you have +EV because of the 13.5 BB's in the middle and some fold equity vs weaker hands.
