Default AK line check

Sorry, I don't know how to convert from Full Tilt.
$5 tournament, second hand after first break villian just got moved to table so no reads. Blinds 60/120 I have about 4200 villain has 4500.

He raises to t400 from MP1, I reraise to 1400 from bb with AK, he calls. Im putting him on pp <10 with his smooth call here as I feel he raises QQ+ and prob folds AJ so ne flop with overcards i plan to push considering pot has about 2900 and im left with 2800. Flop j 5 2 with 2 clubs, I have K clubs, I push. Thoughts? And how ambitious is it to think he/she will fold 66-1010 here?

RR looks OK.

Shove's fine, he's probably not folding QQ or JJ(obv) TT, maybe, maybe not. 99, 88, ehh, depends on the opponent. You'll get 66-77 to fold.

And you've got outs against that range, slightly over 6 outs, so, He has to fold slightly more than 1/4 the time here. It's ok in the long term.

What'd he flip up?

Edit: Mix in some random stuff, you've got enough FE. It's good.

Push pre-flop, so you'll get to see all 5 cards. The raise you made commits you anyway.

I'd love your line if you had 99+.

I would play it as OP did, but I call a push preflop. It is bad to play 99-AA one way and AK another.

Only if your opponents are observing you, which they won't be in a 5$.

Overbet pushes get called by pps. The go and go approach works fine.
