You're entitled to damages incurred by the tenant's breach (either the rent he owes you or the rent you missed out on by not being able to rent to someone else).

You can sue for the back due rent but if you evict, you can't get the future rent that would have been due under the lease. Also, the eviction is a separate suit from the suit for unpaid rent. Unpaid rent is ususlly not worth chasing. Cost money to sue, and hard to collect. Evict him, get a better tenant.
