    Do i shove here, check/call or check/fold???
  2. What's the buy in here?

    I think you shove it here. Your bet/call on the flop and your check/raise turn screams a queen. His call on the turn screams that he has a queen as well. So, your only worried about AQ, and it's just unlikely that Dano limps from the button with AQ here.

    It's just highly unlikely he has any other ace here that he would call your turn bet with and not have raised preflop.

    Though, to avoid this spot completely, you could have just pushed the turn. Your raise was pretty much committing you to push any river (which i'm sure was your plan). What do you want to do? Are you going to check/fold to a bet?

    He has you dead on a queen here. If he has a queen, he's going to push the river on you if you check to him. He's also pushing any ace into the river. Are you folding to a push? I can't. If your calling anyway, you might as well push, and let him debate making a hero fold on the river. Put him in the spot where he has to call to pray for a split pot, better than checking and then being the one in that spot.
