Default Live 1/2, value with AA

1/2 NL at Soaring Eagle Casino, the table is mostly donk especially the main villain, who built his stack by putting in 150 on an AA9 board with 88 and rivering K9.

UTG+1 limps, I ($400) make it 15 next to act with AA.

Villain ($300) deliberates and makes it 35 straight, this is the first time he has done so in 2 hours and it folds to me.

I raise to 110 (the first part i am uncertain of) and he calls.

Flop: A 5 8 rainbow. I think for about 8 seconds and try to put out a disgusted vibe, and check. He checks back.

Turn: 9.

I think for a couple of seconds and push with a little shake in my hand and fake authority in my voice.

Meh?

play like you have QQ. don't push. maybe make a half pot bet, feign weakness. You want him to think his KK is good.

later,

Nah, just shove. It'll look more like a bluff.
