Default 10/20 NL, 3 handed...TPTK in position

3 Handed 10/20NL on Prima. Villain just sat down on the table so no real reads. I've seen him before so he's most probably a decent TAGish player.

He has $2k and I cover.

I am dealt A [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]J [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] on the button.

I raise to $70. Villain calls in BB.

Flop comes J [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]2 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]6 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img].

Villain checks. I bet $120, he raises to $290. I call.

Turn 4 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]

Villain bets $600. I ?

What is the best standard line to take in this situation to maximize my EV against a player who is probably a TAG.

I don't think a push is great, but I'm not sure what a better move would be. It's not all that likely that he would call a push with a worse hand (maybe a weaker J, but that's probably it), but pushing at least stops you from being pushed off the best hand. Calling is just weird because of the double flush draws. Maybe 50% push 50% fold? Actually, you're probably ahead more than that. I guess pushing as a standard line isn't too bad, but if you get called, he has lots of outs (some sort of flush draw with extra pair/two pair outs) or is beating you a large majority of the time.

If he's TAG, I definitely fold the turn. If very TAG, then I might even fold to the check/raise. Pick better spots against tight players to get the money in.

Fold here with no real reads. If he is a TAG fold here 100% of the time. He called from the BB and is betting into you. QQ maybe? Either way when in doubt I ask my self what would 2+2 do and in this case that is fold.....
