check the flop!

I disagree with this. A bet will often get us a fold from a 9 (with no heart) and calls from draws. It's true that Qs won't fold here for one bet usually, but most other non-heart hands will fold (especially those that have two overcards to our pair) and that's very good.

Hands that have 2 overcards to our pair outs that aren't straight draws that will fold the flop to a bet after limping preflop in a loose passive game are hands that we usually don't care much, as to whether they call or fold. You're basically talking K8o no heart here or AJo no heart. If you think the 8[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] or J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] will fold then you should bet, but I think you'll be in a better spot by checking the flop.
