Default Re: 25nl AA on a monotone flop; how is my line?

Here is wtf was going on:

[ QUOTE ]
Villain is 16/11/1.85

Full Tilt Poker, $0.10/$0.25 NL Hold'em Cash Game, 6 Players
LegoPoker Hand History Converter

BB: $38.15
Hero (UTG): $27.85
MP: $28.65
CO: $17.30
BTN: $37.60
SB: $61.65

Pre-Flop: A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] dealt to Hero (UTG)
<font color="red">Hero raises to $1</font>, 4 folds, BB calls $0.75

<font color="blue"> Preflop: Woo hoo, I have the nuts; let's get all the money in. Obviously I'm committed. </font>

Flop: ($2.10) 6[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 9[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] J[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (2 Players)
BB checks, Hero checks

<font color="blue"> Flop: Ugh, this flop sucks for me. BB is tight, so I put him on JJ-22/AQ-AJ/A8s+/suited broadway. I'm not committed (I do not think I would have an equity advantage if the money went all in now. My hand has showdown value, so I don't wish to bluff, nor do I think villain will make an incorrect fold if I do bluff. So I'll check behind the flop, and if a broadway card or [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] falls, I'll fold to a big bet. </font>

Turn: ($2.10) 5[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (2 Players)
BB checks, Hero checks

<font color="blue"> Turn: I'm still not committed; BB's range is still behind unless he had pocket fives. However, once again, I do not expect to be a favorite if all the money went in. I'll check the turn and call a reasonable river bet and expect to be ahead. </font>

River: ($2.10) J[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (2 Players)
<font color="red">BB bets $1.40</font>, Hero calls $1.40

<font color="blue"> River: The high card paired, but I think a J is a small part of his range. This is probably going to be a bluff a lot of the time and he made a reasonable bet. Snap call. </font>

Comments?

While AA is the nuts preflop, I'm pretty sure it isn't always the nuts postflop. That's why I think a more passive line was called for vs this villain and this flop.

Edit: Added in suited broadway to villain's range.
