Is this a bluff or do you think you're ahead of his range?

If it's a bluff, how often/what hands do you think he folds to your smallish push. If it's a value bet, what range do you put him on?

I'm a noob, is there more fluidity to bluffing/value betting? Can we be bluffing out part of his range while value betting another part? Does this make any sense?

 After the turn bet, I put villain on:
AA
KK
JJ
AQ (ace of clubs and/or both)
AcKx

Looks like we have zero FE and the only weaker hands that may call a shove are AQ(one club)/KxQc

Ergo, I see no value in raising TPTK here.
Fold>Call>Raise

 I like getting it in preflop against this guy with him squeezing.

My first thought was opting for a 4bet as well. This looks like a standard squeeze + we're oop + our AK is sooted.

with this flop you're either winning a small pot or losing a large one

thnx guys... If I had more history I would have 4 bet/shove but I wanted to see a flop first.

If I call and get this flop, I probly just need to get it in there me thinks.

I donk-shove the turn or just stick-it-in on the flop.

If I flat here, my plan is to pick off a c-bet and send a message.
I usually just re-raise or fold though.

Don't discount just folding pre-flop. It's a small mistake at worst. I think you need to challenge yourself to make good decisions here instead of just LoLSHOVE. Others disagree.

Bascially, I'm never folding top pair in a pot with an SPR under 5. If I don't think I'll want to felt top pair, I'll make my mistake on a cheap street.
