How to answer (if at all) Villians question?

alright hand came up at a 1/2 nl. i just sit down 2 hands in and i look at QQ, V to my right makes it 15 to go. i re-raise it to 45. he calls. he checks the 8 high flop. i make it 100. he folds his Kings face up. so he immediately goes i know you have ACE's. i did not say anything. so after he did that the table look at him like are u crazy. anyways he kept asking me you had aces right? so i finally just said yes so he would stop asking me. so what would you have said? what do i want him to think i made that play with? i figured saying QQ would be better so that he will call me next time in a situation like that and hope that i have him beat???

You handled it right, provided you continued to bluff him the rest of the night.

Flip over your QQ the second his kings hit the muck and laugh in his face while you drag the pot. Then take the rest of his chips within the next orbit because he is on rage tilt.

The problem telling him his read was correct (even though it wasn't) is it could give him a huge confidence boost thus giving him the chance to make better plays later on,As we all know when you are confident you tend to make better decisions.

Personally i would not say a word and just let him stew on his decision,let him think about it for a while.But don't show you're hand unless you think you can tilt him showing good players you're hand can give them an edge in later situations.
