Default 5/10 AA Monotone Flop

Venetian 5/10, 9-Handed.

Villian is an above average player that has run poorly this session and is stuck probably a grand. His opening range from MP is pretty standard. He has raised a couple straddles and they have all been small raises for straddle pots (50 or 60). He also seems frustrated and I think he is tilting some as he has gotten more aggressive over the last ~half hour, but not super laggy or anything. A little tilt, not monkey tilt. Hero is viewed as tight.

Hero has 1700, Villian covers.

Hero has A [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] A [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] in the SB.

Preflop
UTG live-straddles 20, Villian raises to 50 in hijack, Hero raises to 170, Villian calls.

Flop (370): 9 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 6 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 5 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]
Hero checks, Villian bets 170, Hero calls.

Turn (710): A [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]
Hero checks, Villian bets 320, Hero calls.

River (1350): T [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]
Hero checks, Villian bets 500, Hero calls.

Thoughts on my line?

Surely you can get some more value out of this hand...

Why not just lead the flop hard and try to stack his overpair?

I mean, I guess it is a way way ahead/not too far behind spot, but there are so many things he can stack off with here that you crush I'd just get the money in ASAP

As played, is there value in a river shove, or would he never give you credit for a bluff?

I keep flip flopping, his whole range is drawing like dead vs you, I think id stick in a raise on the river just incase he has a set.

If hes been getting more aggressive in the past half hour then I would say a lot of suited connectors/suited gappers are in his range. As you can see, a lot of those got there. I dont think there is any value in a river raise from you but hey thats just me.

I can't imagine not leading the flop and getting all-in by the river, unless villian is aggro in 3-bet pots in which case I may check somewhere I guess.

Seems reasonable if you think he's aggro and a little tilty, but shove the river once he bets.

I'd bet like $1100 on the river trying to fake a missed nut flush draw. Anything horrible with that?

He'll talk himself into a call with a pair or a worse set a lot of the time.

That's what your hand looks like to me.
