I bet something like 650 here

That commits you but pushing here almost makes it look like AK/AQ and you want him to fold. Its possible he makes the call there with 99 or TT or makes a great call with some mid PP like 77.

Checking behind is such a strange play it would almost look like youre slowplaying a huge hand like JJ

Good flop to push since it's not likely to have connected with villain - it's tough to say with no reads on villain. If I was villain, I would put you on a premium PP since you raised the 3rd time and wouldn't call unless I had a good hand.

Yeah, I'm not seeing what hands villain is calling with here. I don't see him min-reraising with any hand with a Jack, JJ, 88, or 33. Great flop for you... push away.

Thanks for the responses. Unfortunately for me he had 86 offsuit and called. Oh well.
