    Does shoving the turn let him get away from a lot of the hands I'm crushing?

    444, QT, AhQx, KhJx are all in his range that he would play the same way (except for maybe KhJx) that we beat. Aside from a flopped flush, there is really nothing we're not beating here, and we still have outs. The board is so draw heavy that a turn push isn't bad at all.

    The good thing about the villain being a TAgg in this situation is that TAggs don't just play any two suited cards, but are much more likely to have paired the queen. I suspect you're probably beaten here (let's hope he has KQ) but it's something to consider.
