I'd bet out on the flop..you're going broke to a higher Q anyway...you'll definitely get action from an A..whereas you might fold one out if you c/r.

and if someone calls you can put a big bet in on the turn to give them bad odds for their draw...and if they have an A, they'll probably call you as well

If you are going to c/r, then make it larger.

As played, I bet turn and river.

I would just lead the flop, c/r screams Q while leading looks like a possble A or flushdraw or Q.
If you checked the flop make the c/r bigger
I would bet turn and river aswell

against some opponents I might check the turn but definately bet the river. I agree with leading the flop also.

Hey littlepotato...you are very tight. Makes it probably hard to trap you, but what are you waiting for to bet, if not trips? CO has obviously no Queen, since he would shove the flop or at least bet the turn significantly.
Your c/r is screaming, "i have a Queen, would you pls call me"
And if your opponent is stubborn and cant catch the message, he will go all the way with his ace...
like GKA said...you should at least valuebet the turn. If raised, reevaluate. But you shouldnt be afraid about every arriving draw...Y give him credit for that? He will tell you soon enough...

Keep your pants on

on that level, even turn c/r, still some people do not believe you, if there is no flush possibility, i would bet the river for sure.

I would just lead the flop for 200-250. You will get action from an ace and from any donk who wants to chase their flush. By check-raising you may as well flip your cards face up. Leading out disguises your hand best.
