QQ HU w/Ace on flop
 

Wasn't sure what the best plan of attack was here. Would I have been better off checking the flop and letting him dictate the action? The way I played it just felt all wrong. Any thoughts?

Perfect. All you are really doing here is value betting against someone holding KJ or TT or whatever. Nice hand.

I see no problems here. If he's really that passive and calling down with A-rag, then all the better.

If this play is ok, is it fair to assume that we expect to win this hand &gt;= 50% of the time?
