Re: Common turn problem - QQ
Sounds like you can comfortably bet/fold this, Stellar. If he's very passive, then you won't be a big enough favorite to call down getting 7.5:1 immediate against a turn raise (effectively 9.5:2). But given that the board is drawy and loose/passives like to cold-call with hands like KJ/QJ and chase gutshots -- not to mention the flush draw on board -- then you still have a turn value bet to protect from that draw. I also wouldn't expect a turn raise to be a semi-bluff very often given your read.
If called, I would consider c/f the river if you think he's too passive to bluff a missed draw.
