Villian is 15/11 for 27 hands. It is fortunate but it is the 4th time getting AA so I played it like I had a AQ hand or a AJ hand to balance my range, which I am still working on.

Bet flop, imo, he is pretty nittish so his calling range will contain alot of pocket pairs that will love this flop, also its a pretty hard flop to have connected with, especially UTG so hands may float the flop that have little equity.
generally speaking i would bet 3 streets for value and expect over pairs to call me down,
if you are only going for 2 streets on value, and you are concerned with him having a weak range and folding then i would rather bet/check/bet which will get looked up more than on the river check/minraise/bet
as played on turn tho, clicking it back on the turn looks super strong, i would 2.5ish it to around 2250 at least.

I really think this advice is spot on and exactly what I would have written up.

You want to get as much value as you can, I agree with duggs. If I am in EP with aces or kings I will sometimes limp if I know I have agressive players left to act to induce them to put more in. This has worked well for me on occasion when I get someone who does not like to be limp/raised from an IP player. Be on the lookout for these pissing contest guys, they are few, but you can get there whole stack in pre because of ego. In general I try to keep my IP raises small, min raise as not to look strong with the range I choose to play, I will limp with both marginal and monsters to polarize as well.
