Default Re: QQ flops top set, pretty disgusted with this one.

You really need to bet that flop. If he is one to bet with weak hands or draws, he is probably willing to call with weak hands and draws as well. Getting checked through on the flop and turn is horrible. Your opponenets expect you to bet the flop after raising preflop, when you check most of the time they suspect a)weak hand or b)monster and when you check raise the flop ( which is what I hope you were intending to do) they will think monster only. Betting the flop leaves your opponents clueless. Yes sometimes they may all fold but they also might call down with bottom pair if they put you on AK.
A Flop bet is almost mandatory here unless you are against a complete mouse who wont call without a huge hand in that case check the flop and try to induce a bet but even if he checks through, bet the turn. You missed lots of value bets on this hand.
