That lines will suit you very well in these games.

Please explain this a bit, as I suspect it provides some needed context.

Basically it is just because people are usually passive in these spots with hands that you're crushing like TT. So they will call a pot bet. And a lot of people are passive even with massive draws. So you are charging draws, and he probably has a set or straight if he is pushing. Best case scenario he has a massive draw that you are not ahead of. If you make the flop JsTs3c instead of your flop then I think you should pot it and call a push because a set of jacks or tens is less likely since they would have raised preflop and people will limp and then call raise with AT and AJ and then overplay one pair on the flop. And if he has JT, you have several outs. But it all depends, of course.
