The flop is Q -10 -7, the bets are checked to you and you have 10's. How do you think it is best to play this situation, both on the flop and the turn?

id gauge play off the betting. if after the flop everyone checks, then after the turn everyone checks again, then go for the bet. if someone was packin the queen they'd have already bet on it most likely, even if it was just a minimal BB bet.
if the flop comes down and you have 1 or 2 people betting 2xBB or more than odds are they are packin a queen or a high pocket, or etc.. and your odds are guna be diminished.

Bet this on the flop everytime. There aren't a whole lot of players who would slowplay top pair. If there is nothing scary on the board your mid pair is likely the best hand. Bet again on the turn. If your hand hasn't improved by the river just check it. In general it's best to be aggressive early in hands to find out where you stand.
