Luck > Skill @ 50/100

So a bit of an into here, I'm rambling pretty high as I'm disgusted at the stock market and want to make some money back. I was being intelligent about it, sat at two 50/100 tables with a shortstack idiot, who I won a bit from. But the games fill and before I quit this hand occurs. I realize this is a bad flop for me, and lead-calling an all in is trouble as I really only beat AQ and Iva seems to be quite good(probably doesnt have AQ). I figure hes likely to put me on AK if I check and perhaps bet JJ or his own AK, so I check, intending to most likely move in if he bets. Well he checks and I turn top set, wow. I have to lead because the board is increasingly likely to have a 4 card straight on the river and the pot is already large, but I'm going to chump bet in case he has a marginal hand and he might put it in putting me on air due to my flop check. Wow he moves in and I call, thankfully he doesnt have a bizarre hand for a straight, but a set of Queens! Heck of a flop check by him LOL.
