Check behind with aces?

I think this analysis is correct. When villain checks after capping the flop, I think it is very likely he is holding a monster.

I'd like to think about this hand as villain. Who checks the flop here? We have to know that this Queen turn is scaring the crap out of our opponent unless he has AQ or KQ (which are now more unlikely than an overpair). I think we need to bet this turn to get maximum value, right? I think an overpair generally pays us off, and if he does have AQ or KQ, we're probably going to get the chance to 3 bet the turn now.

I agree. I'd bet the turn every time with QT here.

I agree, I continue betting this turn, regardless of the card. But, many weaker opponents will not. The only other possibilities are an overplayed KJ/J9/AT or an unlikely counterfeited T6.
