Default Possibly interesting AA hand from Rio 5/10 (WSOP side game)

OK, so when this hand starts I'm sitting on between $3500-$4000. Game is somewhat loose; the players on either side of me are similarly deep and splashing around-- guy on my right probably calls too much; guy on my left plays far too many hands but tends to know where he's at anyway and can be tricky. Two fairly aggressive Swedish kids are in mid position (seats 4 and 5; I'm in seat 8). I start the hand in SB.

Button puts on the $20 Mississippi straddle. I have red AA and call it planning to limp-reraise (The Swedish kids had been raising PF frequently and as a whole the table was definitely aggressive enough to expect it from somebody). Instead, the two players on my left call, the Swedish kids call, and the button checks his option. Six-way pot.

Flop is J64 two hearts. I lead $75 (not enough? Should I be leading at all?) Seat 9 folds and the 1 seat (younger Asian kid on about $1200 total, maybe less, somewhat aggressive when he's in a hand but I don't particularly fear him) makes it $175. Everyone folds to me. I call because I think I still might be good and don't really want to 3-bet with my hand and effective stack size.

Pot is now ~$470. As I'm debating what to do next the turn comes a black Ace.

How do I proceed? What does he probably have? I'll post my turn and river actions after getting some responses.

i agree with snaggle and you should c/r this turn big. you're looking to stack another set or AJ.

your flop bet is kinda weak, i would bet near pot or the pot on that board oop in a 6-way limped pot.

C/R

You get AJ to call, and you'll get a lot of action from the set who will put you on AJ more than likely.

Yeah seems like a tailor-made CHR situation.

OK so that part is easy. I thought the same thing and checked. He took a few seconds but then he checked behind. What does he have?

River is a red Jack. Board is now J 6 4 A J, no flush possible. Pot is ~$470 and he has ~$950.

What's my best line and what are his possible holdings?

loving c/r'ing here. although i don't like c/r'ing the turn. i had a long post written out before but deleted it because it wasn't very cohesive.

I would check. He either has a missed draw or rivered trips. Hopefully we can get a bet out of a missed draw, and if he has trips he is betting and setting up a nice all in c/r for us.

lead like two thirds pot to charge a draw or jack. the draw, if it is decently big, will often shove.
