Default Re: 5/10 QQ\'s 4bet gets flatcalled, flop comes dryest of dry

I'm fairly sure when I get it in on this flop, a pretty big majority of the time I'll be in bad shape WITHOUT much history. That said, if I'm only stacking off with AA or KK here then I'm going to be exploited all day, and I think his call preflop is a float a fairly large percentage of the time. My thought process was that if he did decide to float preflop, obviously he's doing so with the intention of bluffing after I give up on the flop. I thought that if I led out, I would get all those floats to fold and AA/KK to push. However, if I check, that allows him to bluff AND this flop is so dry that KK and certainly AA are probably going to slowplay by checking behind. After he bets out, he's almost certainly going to shut down if I call, and there's no sense in letting him draw to a K or A if he has one (or pocket pair for an overboat), so I pushed.
