QQ flop in very large pot

Nobody's folding for one small bet, so I don't see it as a tragedy if it happens to get checked around. It sure would seem likely, though, that there's an ace behind you.

In my game, I wouldn't decide to bet or check based on the value of deception. In a pot this size, they're calling, calling, calling.
