Do you call this huge shove preflop with QQ?

Blinds: $0.01/$0.02 (8 Players) BB: $2.00
UTG: $2.25
UTG+1: $2.00
MP: $0.80
MP+1: $1.58
CO: $2.02 (Hero)
BN: $2.23
SB: $2.09
Preflop ($0.03) Hero is CO with Q Q
UTG raises to $0.06, UTG+1 folds, MP calls $0.06, MP+1 calls $0.06, Hero raises to $0.34, 3 folds, UTG raises to $2.25 and is all in, MP folds, MP+1 folds, Hero calls $1.68 and is all in
I did the math and we need 40% pot odds in order to make the call. Villain at 600 hands at 9max has overall vpip.pfr of 17/13 and 3bet is 5 but the sample size is 11 times out of 221 times. I think 11 times is not a big sample in order to take this stat very seriously.

If villain has the range of QQ+ and AK here then we have exactly 40% equity. Such a huge 5bet imo would not be done with AKo and maybe QQ as well(not sure though about that). I think I should have folded.
Flop ($4.42) J 2 K
Turn ($4.42) J 2 K 5
River ($4.42) J 2 K 5 3
Final Pot UTG wins and shows three of a kind, Kings.
CO lost and shows a pair of Queens.
UTG wins $4.04
Rake is $0.15

This is a 4-bet shove, not a 5-bet. 3-bet stat is ok to look at, but not directly relevant.

In general, when a very tight player opens from UTG+1 and then 4-bet shoves, you should expect a very tight range.

If he only has QQ+, AK, then it's ok to fold (the call is breakeven without rake/slightly losing with rake). If you think he has JJ in his range, then you can call. Unfortunately, there's no way to be sure because I don't know the Villain.

Villain is a tight player and the 4 bet is not that huge if you look at effective stacks. Think after 200 hands 3 bet is saying something already certainly together with his preflop overall tightness it is also a multi way pot so he will most likely be even tighter here.

Would not be sure that AKo and QQ are in his 4 bet range in this spot so would let it go.

3b range is super tight for starters. I expect this 4b range to be super snug. 200 hands is a pretty darn good sample. I see people making decisions off of 8 occurrences.

Folding here.
