I bet them both. I rarely take a c/c line when I have initiative.

 Start by betting $3.50 in both hands.

 This was just a sanity check for me...I've really started to question all my play lately.

I auto-bet both of these. What villains / situations (if any) would you guys consider NOT betting this?

 I check the flop in the first hand about a 1/3 of the time to catch bluffs. That's the only time I check either flop.

So just a random 1/3 of the time, or vs especially aggressive villains? Why the first hand and not the second? Queens as an overpair are more vulnerable than TPGK?

I prefer to do this on less drawy flops that are more likely to be bluffed. Especially flop #1 hit villians range a good % and our hand is too strong to be reduced to a bluff catcher
