Don't have the hand history with me but here it is. This wasn't HU, just making it easier.
Hero - $10.00
Villian - $10.00
Hero (9d 8d)
Villian raises preflop to $.50
Hero calls
FLOP 10c Qc Jh
Villian bet $1.00
Hero raises to $3.00
Villian Raises all in
Hero???

If you hit the low end of your straight (7 6 5), I'd call the all-in. I'd probably give him credit for th AK.

there are too many other weaker hands in his range that he would shove with here not to call.

I don't know anything about the person's in the hand; it's just what I would do in that situation.

I was about 75% sure he had AK and but I still called hoping he had AA, KK, QQ, JJ, AQ.

Never bet on a white man in the heavyweight division!

Dude -- on 10NL, there plenty of LAGGs with waaaay bigger ranges than that on that board. I wouldn't be surprised to see villain turn T9, KQ, KJ, any two clubs etc...

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!

Very true but he raised from EP and was a nit.

You gotta specify these things! 
Even so, I wouldn't put TT+ out of his range...maybe AQ even...

Fold preflop. You cannot play suited connectors profitably OOP. At 10NL, just play pairs and AQ+ in this spot.

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.
