Default 50NL - AA in an awkward spot

Full Tilt Poker - No Limit Hold'em Cash Game - $0.25/$0.50 Blinds - 8 Players - (LegoPoker HH Converter)

SB: $40.45
BB: $16.55
UTG: $63.30
Hero (UTG+1): $50.10
MP1: $49.85
MP2: $31.10
CO: $63.85
BTN: $41.40

Preflop: Hero is dealt A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] A (8 Players)
UTG raises to $2.00, Hero raises to $6.00, 6 folds, UTG calls $4.00

Flop: ($12.75) 7[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 6[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 2[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (2 Players)
UTG checks, Hero bets $10.00, UTG calls $10.00

Turn: ($32.75) 4[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] (2 Players)
UTG checks, Hero?

Pot Size: $32.75



I have like $34 left. I'm not worried about the flush, although I suppose AhQh and AhKh are possible. I'm mainly worried that if I push, it will be obvious I don't care about the flush, which will show a lot of strength. Non-push betting seems terrible.

Help?

I agree pushing is best. But I didn't. So now we see the river.

Turn: ($32.75) 4[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] (2 Players)
UTG checks, Hero checks

River: ($32.75) 2 (2 Players)
UTG bets $15.00, Hero ?

I have $34 behind. Is this a clear shove on river to try to get value from JJ, QQ, and KK?

I'd push this river. He probably would have folded all the pp that made a set on this board preflop, so mostly you will beat another high pp. If he has a flush...doesn't matter, just variance.
And he can't fold the shove because the odds are too good.

people usually don't c/c a drawy flop with an overpair. i think he has a flush draw or a weirdly played set. anyways pot is too big to do anything but push the turn. once you bet the flop, you have to push the turn.

Yes, I butchered this hand terribly.

I flat called the river bet, he showed JJ and my hand is good.

He mentioned in chat something along the lines afterwards that he thought his bet was a bluff, but afterwards I thought he would basically have to call because of pot odds.
