Re: Having AQ Vs. QQ and having a Q flop
I basically agree that you figure to lose money with top pair, top kicker on those rare instances that someone holds a pair that matches your top pair. You can't win at poker worrying about everything the other guy might have.
However, there are worries when you hold top pair top kicker: higher pair, lower set, straight and flush. You're unlikely to have a hand that you're confident will win, and the other guy might well have a hand that he's confident will win. So while this is a strong flop, it's also one to be careful with (the other ones to be careful with are all the other flops).
