His theory is that if you beat most of villain's potential boats, then you should just push, because you will get called a redonkulously high % of the time.

Ahhhh, ok. Thanks 42.

If I had a weak ace in this hand instead of QTo and I hit a boat on the river instead of quads, would you recommend pushing AI if checked to? The reason I am asking this is that it seems that a bunch of posters would fold the queens full in this spot, so we could prevent a chop by pushing...?

Is the reward worth the risk of running into a slowplayed AA or Qx?

Your example is different IMO from the typical Zeebo one because of the Ace. If that Ace is any other card then I think you get tremendous value showing with a Q, or an 'overpair'

In this case (at least IMO) that ace on the board is enough to scare off the worse boats. A donkey is never folding an ace there and a smart player isn't calling a shove without a Q.

Make that A a T and make your hand JJ and you will see all kinds of crap (lower PPs, AT, etc.) falling over themselves to stack off.
