Your not thinking about this situation correctly. His range when he calls is likely something like AA, AQ, TT, and weird shit he didnt want to fold.. Your range is likely AK, JJ+, and air. Yes, your shove is bluffy given your range but given his range its pretty irrelevant, you allow him to not make a mistake by shoving into him and your shoving into a pretty disgusting calling range.

If he checks behind your damn right were checking it down. Once he checks behind he is likely repping SD value anyways so anything that wants to bet has us beat. Any subsequent later street is tough to a bet but probably a fold.
