Very simple QQ checkup

[Hince]

I play it the same. I tend to give credit to 3-bets against unknowns.

[Robert A.]

I usually check/call in these overpair situations all day and reevaluate turn

[4_2_it]

With no reads this is what I will do as well.

Another option is to c/c this flop. Most times c/f turn.

[Dan Bitel]

i dont see what bet folding rly does. I used to do it a lot. I guess it stops us being 2 barrelled off the best hand. I guess adds some protection. But it rly loses a bit of value i feel

[Maulik]

I prefer c/r or c/c

[4_2_it]

You check call and turn is a blank. Now you are playing for stacks.

It does greatly devalue your hand to bet the flop, but how much are you making from a worse hand here (probably AK) anyway?

Not true. I find that AK will rarely double barrel here in these spots. So the action will usually go c/c on the turn if he has AQ/AK. I'm not too concerned w. him hitting his 6 outer. I think we will usually be able to check it down (sometimes c/c river) most times if he has missed overs.

That's a bit different though Paul. My villian is a complete unknown.
