I agree completely with your range assessment but this is not a thinking fish. The game I play in is really soft. Most players know the ABC of poker and that is about it. Against these level 1 players, I often do not need to balance ranges because they simply don't play their hands based on opponent's range. I just need to worry about their range while totally ignoring my (just play the hand I have against their range instead of my range vs theirs)
So with that said, my hand here is just AA. What we need to worry about is the range of hands that he bets full pot with. So in essence, when he bets, is AA good here enough of the time? Since this is a question I can't confidently answer, I chose to check/call and keep the pot size in control.
Do you think this reasoning makes sense? Or did I level myself into a -EV play?
