    I would just check the flop. Sure, at micros we don't generally 'slow play' but given this board texture and pre it's highly unlikely we're goign to get much action if any.

    QQ+ can mainly be discounted pre, there is only 1 jack left, so the probability of anyone having Jx is highly unlikely and the only other hands that we can really get any action off are 44/22 and 53s/53o is again unlikely because of pre.

    Sure we might get one street of value from 55-TT if he lol puts us on AK, but I doubt we can really get more than 1 street, unless he hits a two outer on the turn. I'd just give a free card to those 55-TT hands that may fold to a flop cbet but would cream there pants if they turned a set and also to those Q-Ax hands that might catch TP on the turn.

    Hello I am new to the game of poker. I am wondering why you would discount QQ+pf. He said the table had been pretty passive anxious have come across plenty of ppl who play those hands with a min raise or limps.
    Thank you for any comments.

    I guess the way passive players generally play in micro, they tend to over bet higher pp's?
