I generally prefer to bet quads, but in this case I'd have to check.

i check and let the other guy catch up there is no way you can get paid off there unless the other guy has 66 even KK or AA would not pay you off( or shouldnt pay you off), but if i was to bet i would bet very small to either keep building the pot or entice somebody to come right over the top with a bluff

titles misleading. I know my prefered way of playing it. I check the flop, bet about 1/2 pot on turn, about 3/4 on river and get paid lovely .

It may be worth betting a small amount and then checking the turn. At least that way you can induce a bluff if noone has hit.

Bet it 90% of the time. check calling/check raising gives your hand away as having at least one queen in it. Reverse bluff in the fact nobody would expect you to bet out and you sometimes get reraised allin by someone who thiks you have nothing. Also anybody with 66,77,88,99,tt,jj,kk,aa thinks they are still in front and you wont lose them.

I agree with Ariston. You need to do everything you can to disguise your hand.
