i'd like to know your reasoning for continuing on this flop. seems like a good flop to c/c.

I was thinking the same thing. Villains range is TT+ AQ+, seems to me betting flop is folding out worse and building a bigger pot OOP against better.

If you take the check/call line are you folding to a turn bet?

Do work,

Probably, in fact, I could c/f flop with a read on the villain bluffing tendencies.

-I'd c/c AK here also, so that balances out c/c with QQ. -Also, its reasonable that villain may be afraid were slowplaying a set (not that we would play it this way, but villain may be worried).
-Villain probably won't turn hands like AJ or similar hands into a bluff, hoping that he has showdown value.

Add this all up and I think his bluffing frequency is pretty low.

if villain is aggressive, i'd like a crai since your hand is so underrepresented, hes putting you on a smaller pair TT-QQ if hes a thinking player and knows you'd have to fold those to more heat. If not you might want to lead?

so, you suggest a c/c on the flop, and then hope that the turn and river go check/check check/check? this will happen almost never according to my experience.

Agree with Ikes.

A more general point:
OP, I would consider not making continuation bets 100% of the time. Many of the regulars will definitely notice this. If you are always firing on the flop, you makes hands harder to play, as dudes will call you ligher and play back at you. Further, not betting all the time tends to get you more credit when you do bet.

Interesting hand though.

Edit: Depends whether or not you sometimes 3 bet light, of course. I'm just saying don't feel as if you need to win every single pot you play. Players are also sometimes suspicious of a good hand if you check after 3 betting, allowing you to check some hands down for a street or 2.
