Default Turning TPTK into fake bluff NLCASH

I'm like four hands in against this villain. He isn't shortstacking, seems aggressive, and I saw him with a ~250bb stack at another table so I'm giving him benefit of the doubt and assuming hes good (I probably wouldn't bother to play him but I'm waiting on my roommate to take a [censored] so we can go eat).

Full Tilt Poker Game #3570825289: Table Pear (heads up) - $0.50/$1 - No Limit Hold'em - 13:51:33 ET - 2007/09/15
Seat 1: xSCWx ($97.50)
Seat 2: zeblacklotus ($102.20)

zeblacklotus posts the small blind of $0.50
xSCWx posts the big blind of $1
The button is in seat #2

xSCWx has 15 seconds left to act
xSCWx bets $69.50, and is all in


Pot at river is $56.00.

I put him on a weaker queen by the way he played. It is possible for JT to have trapped me but I would expect them to try to suck some value out on the turn. I figure the most likely holding here is weak queen or a middle pair.

Just lead turn. I think this is only profitable against thinking opponents who put people on ranges.

I think this is totally fine to do every once in a while. It's pretty unlikely he has spades, and maybe you shoving will get him to make a hero call against your AK.
