What's your question? What to do on the flop? Villain shoves most aces pre so you bet here with most if not all of your range. Apart from T8, maybe A8 and a slowplayed AA we have the best hand here 100%. So find the best way to stick all your chips in.

As I wrote, start with a bet with every hand you have. If you check, villain will thank you and check behind almost always if he knows what he's doing. Pressure his 98, JT, gutshots, etc.

Got it. So...

Hero bets 15.5k, BB calls

(Pot $41,000), we have ~60k behind

Turn: Q

Hero?

Bet smaller or bigger so your turnstack isn't so awkward, but as played I guess we can just ship it in. Betting anything less doesn't really do great things and checking gives too much equity away.

Givin that V seems to be on the tighter side and not having too much info, i will open pre or complete, both are fine, i will only jamm if V is competent/good.
As played i will x/c turn depending on his sizing, pretty bad card to bet/to thin imo.
