After flop xr, you should x turn. He has the range advantage on this board. When he xr again, you are in a bad spot. I fold to the 2p raise.

Any info on villain?

I might check back turn I might bet, probably villain dependant. The issue is if I bet it's never going to be this small. After getting x/r on the flop if you bet this turn your range is pretty polarized. Don't bet small with a polarized range. Make it $1.2 to $2 if you do bet.

As played fold. He x/r on the flop then x/r into a polarized range on the turn. He's got a big hand.

Bet more on the flop. It's a bit wet and our AA is a great hand. You need to charge draws and other floaty hands. You lose some expected value, particularly at micro-stakes, by not charging more on the flop.

As is, bet/call flop. Check turn and make a river decision. This way you can find a way to play a small pot in a marginal position while you have the advantage of position on the BB.

Lose small pots, win big ones and lot's of small ones.
