9 handed 2/5 game

Pretty new table but it seems active.

UTG (420) limps. Seems like solid dude.
UTG+1 (600) limps. Fishy
MP (900) limps. Loose fish.
Hero BB (600) AKdd raises to 45.
UTG calls.
HU
(102) flop J64ddc
X 75 hero raises to 385 all in.

Can’t decide between:
Pot/pot
X/shove
Bet 1/3 pot flop, bet 1/2 pot turn, evaluate riv

I think x/evaluate based on his bet sizing is decent. Since he went large, I like a shove to allow us to maximize FE and realize our equity. If he went for a smaller sizing, say $45 or less, I may go for a x/c.

I also like a $75 flop bet followed by a turn bet that is a committing size ($200+). Potting flop may also isolate us against Jx or better which I don't love when we bomb turn.

I'd prob pot /pot it. C/r ai as the pfr is usually the nfd. I mean you're never playing sets this way

I agree, and would it be suicide to play AA/KK this way?

Because I was thinking I could also take this line with those

Eh problem is most guys are passive and won't be betting at anywhere near the frequency compared to you. And I obv want to build the pot to stack off with my premiums here
