I push pre-flop.

Failing that, I call flop.

Why would you shove flop if you were villain if you really had aces? Wouldn't you go for value?

I don't mind the call pre-flop, but I'm calling this every time on the flop.

I don't agree with this logic. Often overbets are TP or overpairs. So he can definitely have AA here, but he'll have other overpairs QQ-88 or worse often as well.

Well, we agree on one thing. This can be AA,99-KK,AK and even AQ. This is AA much less than it is a hand you beat.

What range do you think an unknown min 4bets PF that he value shoves the flop with?

Calling preflop is ok, snap call the flop.

I don't think that's very well documented.
