Default Re: QQ on a A flop, call down the whole way?

Are you still folding if a heart falls?

I'm calling down unless an offsuit K comes and he instabets. Even then I'll consider still calling.

So you're still checking behind on the turn? Is that what you meant by not "taking the lead" on the turn? I'm not trying to pick on you. Just haven't gotten involved in an actual strat post for a bit.

If he checks the turn when a heart falls, I'm still checking. It could be a ploy by a strong ace to checkraise me, or it could be fear of the heart. I don't mind taking a free shot at the flush draw.

I think calling down to the river unless a non heart K comes is fine.
Obviously bet the river if the turn goes c/c and he checks river

there's a lot of strange advice in this thread.

there are two ways to play this hand assuming we never improve:

- fold the flop

- call/call/call

this talk about raising the flop "for a cheap showdown" is very silly (you either get punished or let villain fold a worse hand on the cheap). this talk about peeling with ~3.5 outs in a 7.5 SB pot is also very silly.
