Default AQo tp CR on flop, thoughts?

Live game $50 buy-in, blinds at 50-100, up next hand. 7 players. UTG Folds. I am UTG+1 with AdQs and make it 300 to go. 4 folds, BB calls 200.

Stacks: Hero-3800, Villian-4000

BB is a solid player, TAG, and recently shoved. Also, BB has had a bit of a vendetta with me outside of the table after a 2:1 outdraw; we were not on speaking terms at this juncture.

Pot: 650

Flop comes Ah Jc 3d rainbow.
Villain checks, I bet 300, Villain minraises to 600. Hero calls.

Pot 1850

Turn 9s
Villain bets 1000.

Hero???

Unless your image is crappy you are probably crushed once he bets the turn. But a laydown is very dependent on reads.

I'd push the miniraise on the flop - with calling here you showed weakness. on the turn i'd push - i think you are ahead here most of the time.

I was actually trying to show weakness; I thought perhaps I'd overplayed it. Even tried to make it look like I wanted to check before purposely betting flop low. Minraise was very strange, given the player and the circumstances.

The line I took was to call the minraise and shove the turn. Villain tanked for a minute, then flipped A3o.

Did I play too creatively here, or was it just a bad spot?

bad-luck
a preflop call with A3o is very questionable for a TAG-player.
