This line of thinking is going to lose you money. Without the absolute nuts villain has the ability to improve even tho you're ahead of his range. Thinking about his range on each street allows you to planfor the unexpected. What do you do if he shoves the river? Do you assume he's bluffing or do you narrow his range to a flopped set thats improved to fill up? What if a club came on the river and he shoves? How can you know how much equity you have if you don't have him on a range? Do a quick calling all in calc vs his shoving range and see if you have the odds to call for 100+ BBs with a Q high flush.

You're also losing value that you need to make these spots profitable. Somtimes he's gonna have that Ac or Kc or both so extracting max value when your ahead will offset your losses enough to make it proftable.
