Daniel's theory is based entirely upon implied odds. Why do you think someone would fold QQ on that flop but not AA? That makes no sense at all, the only difference between those scenarios would be if someone held KK or AA against the QQ. If you hit your flop with suited connectors like that, and you know your opponent has a high pocket pair, then your implied odds have paid off. Simply make an overbet, make it look like a steal, and the other guy WILL go all in with a high pocket pair 99% of the time (unless hes a genius or a pussy), and you will get paid off beautifully. If your opponent had AK or AQ or something, then they will only call with a flushdraw, and you can (and should) go all in on the turn if a blank hits.
