The board is insanely straight connected and has a flush draw. I've posted a straight connectedness % list several times. Not counting your cards, on a not straight board, the straight connectedness of this board is the highest possible at 49%. I'm with monikrazy, I'm mostly checking this flop.
Be careful overplaying AA on the flop. Even when you get a mix of other stuff for you and a mixed of blockers. Especially be careful against multiple opponents. An SPR of about 5 on that board might look good but if you get it in on the flop your opponent is going to have a lot of straight draws and flush draws coming out of his butt. Give yourself the nut flush draw instead of the nut flush blocker and then you are good to get it in.

As played you bet the flop and got it heads up on the turn. The turn was a brick 3h. As played heads up in position I barrel the turn to continue telling my story since the turn card changed nothing.
But if you would have checked the flop and it was still three-handed on the turn, I would have checked the turn too.

As I mentioned earlier, as played, preflop you raised, flop you bet against two opponents, then on the turn up against only one opponent you checked-back instead of bet when a brick hit. Many Villains might bluff 100% of the time when the river doesn't bring a new card but simply pairs one of the current board cards. If you play preflop, flop and turn this way, then many Villains are going to lead into you on the river in similar situations. Let's say you unintentionally induced a bluff.
As for what value we can beat, it depends on the Villain's definition of value. The Villain might view many types of two pair as thin value. He might have had pocket AA with bad side cards. Or he might have had QQ and viewed it as medium strong considering how the hand played out.
