flatting is perfect pf, now just fold to his flop bet.

people are thinking way too much about absolute hand strength (overpair) vs relative hand strength (what you beat in his range, ie nothing). take a look at villain's line so far in the hand. he 4x'd it from fairly early position and makes an almost psb into 2 players. 764 can hit a lot of hands in people's flatting ranges so for him to play his hand like this shows that he really likes his hand and is willing to go with it.

raising this flop "to see where you're at" is super spewy because he basically folds every hand you beat and shoves when he has you crushed, which is like every time. it's doubtful a random villain would play AK/AQ this way, so this leaves pretty much one hand you beat in this spot (88), and that's only if he is willing to put it in with that hand, which he might not. what you beat is such a small percent of his range that both information raising and raising to get it in are terrible.
