Default 200NL: AA in pos, min cr on flop

Comments on all sts appreciated, particularly the turn. No real reads on villain, first time I've played him and I've only been at the table for ten hands or so. Seems lose preflop, he's put $ in 4/10.

<font color="blue"> F! I hate min cr's, especially when I'm readless. I call here b/c folding sees uber weak and...(wait for it)...the games seemed fishier than usual on the night in question. Genius, I know. </font>

Turn: ($95) J[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (2 Players)
<font color="red">UTG bets $58</font>, Hero calls $58

<font color="blue"> The turn action is what I'm particularly interested in. If I had been oop in this hand and he min raised my flop lead I'm pretty sure that I would have cr ai on the turn. Since I was in position here I somehow convinced myself to just call. Partially b/c his 1/2 psb seemed wk and I was hoping for a river check. Partially b/c I don't think a push is folding out anything I beat, so the only way to get more value out of a worse hand is to get him to bet it again on the river. Good strat? Should I have just gone away here? </font>

River: ($211) T[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (2 Players)

<font color="blue"> Now I figure I'm beat but wtf...I've got As and 3:1 odds! </font>
