Default TPTK raised on flop/to shove or not to shove?

Seat 1 - BB ($1815 in chips)
Seat 2 - UTG ($415 in chips)
Seat 3 - CO - Villain ($5460 in chips)
Seat 4 - Button ($2825 in chips)
Seat 5 - Hero ($2985 in chips)
Hero - Posts small blind $50
BB - Posts big blind $100
*** POCKET CARDS ***
Dealt to Hero [A [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] J [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]]
UTG - Folds
Villain - Raises $300 to $300
UTG - Folds
SB - Calls $250
BB - Calls $200
*** FLOP *** [5 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 6 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] J [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]]
Hero - Bets $500
BB - Folds
Villain - Raises $1000 to $1000
Hero - All-In(Raise) $2185 to $2685

I figure that if this a 50/50 decision then I would willingly do it again as I think winning this pot puts me in a strong position to win.

I have put the villains range as follows
AA - 3 (possible hands)
KK - 6
QQ - 6
JJ - 1
AdKd - 1
AdQd - 1
KdQd - 1
QJ - 16

16 hands I'm beating/16 are beating me/3 are about equal. Although I think the 16 hands I am beating are less likely to be in the villains range.

Anyone folding this flop?

Whats the buyin & do you have any reads on villan? Loose/tight? Has he played aggressively so far?

I shove unless I have some sort of read that villan is a complete nit. I'm guessing you will see a lot of Jx here & quite a few folds after you push.

I would describe him as a tricky player. Allot of pots were being raised early in the game and he limped UTG with AA. I definitely think he pays attention to individual players. I have been loose/aggressive, betting big on most flops. I would describe him as loose player but his 2 raises means he probably has a decent hand.

His VPIP is 45, PFR 9, AF 0.77

the buyin would be a nice info.

cause that minraise on the flop means different things.
People on the the lower stakes just click the raise button and think they are bluffing like the pros, cause they got garbage and raise. But they are just donating chips to you.
On the higher stakes this could be somekind of tricky play, that should make you think he is on a tp-weak kicker. or he is just an idiot playing above his level.

Oops I misread this hand the first time I thought you were the pre-flop raiser... Normally I would just fold here pre-flop.
