Look at the read: this a tagg-reg who folds too much (redundant?), but who gets his knickers in a twist when facing Daven's aggression. Checking on this board which is pretty dry, even with the flush draw, allows this villain to get chips in the pot in an attempt to "steal it" from Daven. Sure, he's calling with AK and probably a few other combos, but he'll consider betting KQ, QQ and maybe even AQ/AJ if he thinks Daven caught air.

For the turn, it's not really a shove. At this point, it's just a 2/3 psb which gives villain 2.5 to 1 pot odds on his turn call. Daven's never folding here, so he offers the juiciest incentives possible for Villain to donate to Daven's little slice of the poker economy.
