Default ($60 Turbo) AA on a paired flop

we were only on level 2, but this guy was showing all the signs of a donk, limping and/or calling raises from any position with hands that looked pretty, calling down with anything that resembled a hand or draw, chatting it up, etc. he was probably playing around 35% of hands. his play style was loose/passive.

is it standard to check behind on this flop? the fact that he was passive just flew over my head this hand, and i was auto-jamming this flop vs. him just because he was loose. thoughts?

Good flop bet... but given your read on his passiveness, I'm nearly positive he has a King here.

I would c/r AI so you help guarantee worse hands call like QQ-TT &amp; any 9 if you are going to continue the hand. I certainly would against this opponent especially.

Only you allow worse hands to bluff you out of the pot. I don't mind going broke here. A lag is much more capable of slow playing is K here.

You mean check behind on the flop? Hero acts last.

is he capable of doing this without a K? if you think its reasonable that he is, call, he seems like a donk, but even donks wont make big plays like this without a big hand so...read based IMO in this spot.
