don't raise the bet if you're not going to snap call a shove

Bingo. Otherwise, think about what you're doing. Raising and folding meant your raise was "just to see where you were at," which is a cardinal sin around these parts.

I've heard many 2+2'rs reiterate this concept. Is it outlined in one of the books?

got to let it go now. to avoid this decide whether or not to play remainig streets or move on to thye next hand

[LouderThanBombs]

As played you probably should fold, you built a big pot without being willing to play one, therefore you set yourself up for a tough decision.

Villain can have AsKs for sure but AA is literally 6x more likely.

This is probably a call as played (with the raise on the flop) with the odds that is layed out, but I really struggle with these hands myself, I've seen to many players at these stakes overvaluing a worse overpair to be convinced that ur behind. I probably just call the flop and re-evaluate, but it doesn't get easier to lay it down on the turn to another blank...

It is a 'lets see where i'm at raise'

and i'm not priced in if he shoves.

If I call and he bets a blanked turn, then I still dont know where I stand.
