Re: Ahead of his range but unprofitable to push?
If this is a live £1-£2 game in London, i shove and fist pump when he calls.
The action hardly dictates to that of having you beat right now.
I personally would weight a range here more towards AA/KK/AQ, with sets making up a tiny part of his range. The reason is people love to slowplay live, and with so many people left to act on the flop i imagine he's calling sets far far more than he's ever raising them.
There's also the small chance he makes a hero call with KQ, "putting you on a draw because you played it so fast".
Given these assumptions i believe your equity here is much better than you originally assumed. I think you should include AQ and KK within his calling range.
I also don't mind calling and donking 60-80 on the turn, but there are a lot of cards we don't want to see.
