he just doesn't stack off against op here with AA, it's that simple.
Just because he checked the flop doesn't necessarily mean he is a nit. That flop is no trouble at all for big overpairs, so villain could be looking to checkraise precisely because we are deep.
Now, that is not saying that betting isn't the right play OTF. However, we need to know how we will respond to a checkraise before doing so.
I think I would check the flop and then bet the turn when checked to a second time. Maybe what you are saying is that the flop bet would accomplish the same thing and not give a free card?
As played, I think you have put yourself in a spot where you probably have to call the river since your hand is so under-repped and he is probably betting his entire range.
