Uh, why are you eager to get all your chips in with TPTK? FWIW, I think a pot-sized raise on the flop is one of the worst options. It sets you up for one or many of the following things to happen:

1) You get run off by a worse hand,
2) You get all your money in way behind or a little ahead,
3) You let slimly-drawing hands get away very cheap.

That's not good.

i'm really not all that happy to be getting all my chips in w/ tptk, but i think the line i and mike proposed is better that the one taken, and gets all the $ in vs a better set of hands.

personally, i raise pot and check behind on the turn and maybe call a river bet or bet if checked to or check behind, depending on what falls and what the opp looks like.

but then again, i suck.

I think calling the flop is far, far superior to either line that has been mentioned.
