Default aiming for pot control w AA, facing all-in on the river anyway

First time posting in this forum, please don't take it easy on me. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Up against one LAG and one very LAG, but neither is a maniac postflop. BB is 38/23/2.6 over 40 hands, MP2 is 61/46/2.5 over 40 hands. MP2 goes to showdown 30%, wins at showdown 33%.

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $0.10 BB (9 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: 2+2 Forums)

SB ($6.90)
BB ($14.25)
UTG ($13)
UTG+1 ($51.30)
MP1 ($5.85)
MP2 ($17.80)
MP3 ($10)
Heroine ($17.05)
Button ($12.65)

Preflop: Heroine is CO with A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]. MP3 posts a blind of $0.10.
<font color="#666666">3 folds</font>, MP2 calls $0.10, MP3 (poster) checks, <font color="#CC3333">Heroine raises to $0.4</font>, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, BB calls $0.30, MP2 calls $0.30, MP3 folds.

<font color="blue">Should I be raising 5-6xBB here?</font>

Flop: ($1.35) 4[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 6[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">BB bets $0.5</font>, MP2 calls $0.50, <font color="#CC3333">Heroine raises to $2.5</font>, BB folds, MP2 calls $2.

<font color="blue">How's my line here? Should I be raising more and then shutting down if I get called or 3-bet? As played, I think I left myself in a difficult situation.</font>

Turn: ($6.85) J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
MP2 checks, Heroine checks.

<font color="blue">Here I checked behind aiming to control the pot . . . and failed miserably because</font>

River: ($6.85) 5[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">MP2 bets $14.9 (All-In)</font>, Heroine ???

<font color="blue">Is villain's range large enough to warrant a call? My pot odds are terrible. Did I play myself out of this pot?</font>

PF: 4xbb+1bb/limper. In this case you have the guy that posted, so make it .65.

Flop: Make it 2.8(pot sized raise), but I don't think that makes a whole hell of a lot of difference. If he raises I probably shove.

Turn: checking is meh, I'd probably bet 2/3 pot.

River: fold, i'm not seeing if my overpair is good for 150bb.

I hate being nitty, but you're advocating adding 1.5BB instead of 1BB for a poster? Why?

Because he's posting the big and small blinds. I don't even really think about it since I use BetPot, but its just a pot sized raise.
