Default 10NL - QQ overpair vs passive villain

Villain is very passive, 24/2 and very low AF.

I think this hand is fairly simple, but I the way villain flat called the flop raise really really scared me though the flop is pretty dry. What is our plan on the turn?

i think MP will have a big hand here unfortunately. I will bet and probably fold to a raise without at least a set. his flop play is pretty standard for someone with a set. I really do not see him raising you if you bet turn with anything but a set however I think he will call you down with top pair so I would bet turn an fold to his raise after some time and colorful language uttered.

Exactly my thinking, but if I bet the turn here about $4 it commits me to calling a shove...

If he raises you, you have to fold, given his low aggression.

However, if he flat calls, I probably value bet the river.

but do you think he will raise you with any hand you beat? if getting five to one you got to be right 1/6 times and if he never raises with a hand you beat then you are right 0/6 thus meaning you cannot call.

I agree - so does this mean that I should not be betting the turn?

na keep betting turn cause he will keep calling with a T probably. you just need to differentiate his calling range with his raising range on the turn.

But surly bet/folding the turn is really ugly, if he shoves I will have to call, because I will probably be good 1/6 times here....

Raise smaller on the flop and continue to bet the turn.
