Default Re: A-Q-x flop holding QQ line?

I actually don't mind calling and then c/r turn. I know a lot of people are going to hate it, but think about what hand UTG+1 is repping? We have the Kd so the only hand he is stacking off with here on this flop is KKJdTd or AAA. If we call though, he is more likely to continue with his "obv. AAA" as he is less likely to check behind a flush draw because he thinks you have it! Also there is no reason to suspect that he cannot have a huge number of hands that are drawing dead or very slim and he will have to be afraid of a diamond himself if one is to come off on the turn. Also given stack sizes, if you c/c flop there will now be enough to c/r all-in on the 27 cards out of 44 remaining that will improve your hand, not to mention even a T or J or diamond may still be winning the pot. I def do not always advocate this play but in this spot it def can be made.
