The preflop re-raise might’ve been a little much as you’ve really committed yourself with his stack, but once you made that move the pot was over 8K with him having only 50% of that left and you alot leftover. His range is AQ/K, TT+ I would’ve thought with this call and with that flop it is whether you think he has AK (AQ unlikely) or TT+ – so I don’t think you can be wrong whatever you do. Even if he shoves instead of checking it, I think I would be hard pressed to fold as he is going to make the same move with the TT+ range. So, it depends on whether you thought he had AK or the TT+ – with his check I definitely don’t let him see a free card regardless.

Having no other information about the villain I would put him also on the same range than mango. Possible hands – AK – 8 combinations, AQ – 4, AA – 1, KK – 6, JJ – 6, TT – 6.
Now with AK and AA, KK he could have just gone all-in pre-flop so assuming he 4-bets AK 50% and KK 80% of the time AK – 4 combinations and KK – 1, AA very unlikely. He also could fold AQ so I would reduce that to 2 as well. So you are behind AK,AQ,KK – 7 combinations, ahead of JJ, TT 12 combinations. The problem is that he is probably folding JJ and TT when you shove so the only time he calls is when you are beat. Giving a free card in this spot is not a deadly sin because if you are ahead he only has 2 outs. When you check the flop he may put you correctly on a pair and think he can bluff you by pushing on turn with JJ or TT. So as a conclusion I would recommend a check on flop.
