5NL: QQ from UTG facing 3b pot, 4 to the flop

Winning Poker Network (Yatahay) - $0.05 NL (6 max) - Holdem - 5 players
Hand converted by PokerTracker 4: http://www.pokertracker.com

SB: $5.55 (VPIP: 21.51, PFR: 15.83, 3Bet Preflop: 4.17, Hands: 289)
BB: $6.63 (VPIP: 62.50, PFR: 37.50, 3Bet Preflop: 25.00, Hands: 9)
Hero (UTG): $5.00
CO: $12.76 (VPIP: 29.21, PFR: 21.59, 3Bet Preflop: 9.09, Hands: 93)
BTN: $12.17 (VPIP: 23.91, PFR: 21.74, 3Bet Preflop: 20.00, Hands: 47)

SB posts SB $0.02, BB posts BB $0.05

Pre Flop: (pot: $0.07) Hero has Qs Qh
Hero raises to $0.15, fold, BTN raises to $0.52, SB calls $0.50, BB calls $0.47, Hero calls $0.37

Flop : ($2.08, 4 players) 4s 7h Jc
SB checks, BB bets $0.60, Hero ???

I'm concerned about calling this here with players to act behind us. I would tend to interpret BB's smaller sizing as strength, looking for someone to raise over it or for multiple callers to the turn. How would you interpret his sizing? What range do you put him on? How do you play the hand here if you're me?

Thanks

Reraise to what preflop? You're good getting QQ in for stacks here against 2+ players?

Further - Considering I did go the flop 4 way, how do you proceed as played?

would shove pre, too much money pre and QQ is too quite strong to play OOP 4 way. And call flop as played

playing OOP a 4-way pot w/ QQ is terrible. you're gonna get stuck very often post flop.
I'd rather shoving PF. calling OOP is pretty bad.

I see. The thing is that QQ really isn't a hand that people are getting in with often pre in these games. It really is like only AA and KK that will put the money in unless it's a fish who just insta stacks with AK. Every now and then someone stacks with AQs or JJ. Throw in the fact that there is indeed trapping going on and it becomes very difficult to play spots like this.

With just a little work on Flopzilla/HoldEQ, it's clear that I probably lost a ton of EV by not shoving here. Glad I posted this as I'll surely run into something similar again soon.
