But the guy with AQ is NOT making a mistake CALLING. He's getting 11-1 from the pot and he is an 8.4-1 dog to take off one card on the flop.Thus he is getting the right price to proceed whether you bet or not.If you don't bet he is getting infinite odds which is even worse but if you check and he bets into you on the turn you can now raise and Maybe improve your expectation of winning the pot.I believe that is the concept that Mason was trying to get across,however, situations come up where checking the flop can create everyone checking to you again and everyone folds and you lose all the flop bets which is a lot of money.I guess these plays are situational dependent and you just have to make the best guesstimate at the time.
