Do you really expect to be called by a worse hand even against one player?

I do not think this is a value bet. Against a reasonable opponent they are only going to call only when they beat at least ace-high . So now you put yourself in a position when you gain nothing when you have the winning hand(the fold to your bet), and lose a big bet when you do bet and get called(or raised and then have to fold or call an additional bet).

I expect to see a small pp call down here significantly more than Ace or Queen high. I'm newer to these games though.

My money is on one of them having a pair of 5s or PP below that.

if you check, what will a small pair do? if you bet, what will a small pair do? if you check what will a worse A high do? if you bet what will a worse A high do?

see where I'm going?

Does it have something to do with the fundamental theorem of poker? If so then yes I do.
