All I know is this guy is a shortstack, but that should say something itself. Am I ahead enough to shove in here? Obviously calling is not an option.

I don't think I agree that this is push or fold. TT is a hand that has value by itself in position. And bad players will make bad bets and bad calls later in the hand we can read and exploit, and this is probably a bad player. I'm not looking for 17:1 or 10:1 or whatever for set odds, just enough to match my equity versus his range. I'd really prefer reads on his post-flop play to make a call though.

So if I were to choose one I would fold.

I would push, but I hate folding TT for some reason.

Hand 0: 55.763% 55.57% 00.20% 433859544 1547178.00 { JJ+, AJs+, KQs, AJo+ }
Hand 1: 44.237% 44.04% 00.20% 343856724 1547178.00 { TT }

pot is offering $8 dead money if you push you're getting ~1.4:1.

push but it's high variance.

what is wrong with just calling here?

If I just call I'm not going to have any idea what to do on the flop if I don't spike. If I push I at least have a bit of fold equity (maybe) and he can't get away from two overcards like he can on a low flop.

You don't think villian ever has an underpair or Axs here? Also, do you think villian calls with every hand in the range you have given? I personally mix up the three choices here though I'm sure that isn't optimal.
