Any bet commits me to the pot, so I may as well shove. But a shove is only called by a better hand. If I check and someone bets, I would feel compelled to call. So bottom line, I don't know what I should do. Help!!!

I'm not sure only a better hand calls your shove. At this level you could be called by people w/ a) total crap, b) any pp who assume the odds are good you don't really have a K, c) someone with a 3, 4) someone playing Ax. Plus, even if they have a K, you've got 3 outs to Boat. I just think there's way to much other stuff that would call to not push. I'd rather push than check/call as you lose the fold equity.

TT+ arent going anywhere, and may bet out, if you check.
i c/r all in, personally. at this level, you should be going for stacks. if someone only calls your pf RR, i can only assume pp's and AK. i would only be afraid of AK. i c/r AI.

LHE is a game where your skill keeps you breakeven until you hit your rush of random BS.
Nothing beats flopping quads while dropping a duece!

I have no interest in discussing strategy with a protege'. Your job is to remain quiet and listen. I have a very systematic approach that I will share with the right candidate and I promise that I will turn you into a force of nature and show you elements of the game of poker that you never knew existed.

With less than pot behind you shouldn't be considering folding. Just pick whichever line you think gets the most value out of weaker hands.

just shove it
his range is wider than AK here and you still get more calls than youd expect from QQ/JJ/TT
