It´s different if you play cash or tournaments, QQ is a good pair to play it strong preflop.
Looking at the flop, if the board brings an A or K, then I would limit myself to do call / fold, of course it is important the position that I have at the table and the knowledge of my opponent (what kind of player pay my raise o 3 bet me?), I think it is a set of factors to consider to make the best decision.

We have to try to figure out what our opponent is bringing. If he does CALL, if he passes and then he makes us a strong Re-raise, this way we will avoid committing these hands and being eliminated

One tournament i had to fold a pair of Aces, it was the worst thing i had to do but there was a chance of a flush and my opponent was very aggresive. You need to treat your fold like any other hand, try not worry that it was 2 queens or 2 aces, focus on folding a potentially losing hand. I know it's a hard thing to do but with practise, it pays off.

Focus on the win, the goal, not the hand.

I have a similar problem, I see that I can lose this hand on all indicators ... but the hope for bluffing the enemy is the liveliest of all ... sometimes really the opponent is bluffing, but more often not. It is necessary to learn how to manage your emotions, and to study opponents (with the help of analytical programs) then it will be easier to make a decision

Unfortunately my problem has not been solved to the end. I continue to check whether the enemy is not bluffing! Yesterday, because of this, I took only second place in the tournament!

I regret... Do you use programs like HM or PT4? In my opinion when you have statistics on the player and your own notes of his bluff can be unraveled of course not by 100%, but all the same

Hello! I did not fully understand in this thread how you can determine the bot! Can you have other interesting publications on this topic?

I never thought about it, so I will not be able to recommend something else. A bot is a pure mathematics, a person acts sometimes is not logical at all, therefore a person will play stronger for the time being ... the prerequisites for creating a strong bot already exist, where he read that a bot has been created in the GO .. and he defeated the champion man

Just think on the cards that opponent can have instead of thinking about your own cards. If you have pair, someone else have pair too. I have learn that by my own experience. Computer always gives pair to two persons on the table. Consider that in the future games.
