I think preflop is ok, it may induce something and you should be pretty happy playing a 4bet pot with AA IP if he's going to call.

The bet on the flop is ok too, i think.
Imo he's unlikely to c/r a draw here being that deep, so mostly he's going to check/call - draws and most made hands.

At the turn i thought about betting but if he checkraises you it gets really ugly because i think he has almost no hand in his range that beats you but at the same time he's never bluffing.
The reason is that imo he would c/r QQ and JJ mst of the time at the flop trying to get the money in vs AA/KK and protect vs some draws.
If he's afraid to c/r a 2pair he won't do it at the turn either because now even AK got there.
He's also not checkraising any FD on the turn.

Meh maybe i'd bet for value vs KK and AQ and for some protection vs the FD. Imo a bet of ~$50 would be good, i expect him to never have a bluff if he c/r so you can get away from your hand if he pushes.
At the same time you get value from whatever draw or pair he has.

As played i think the riverbet is okay, i thought about checking back because the FD got there but he would lead it some of the time and now that he has checked twice imo there are much more combinations of hands that you get value from in his range than hands that beat you.

edit: i'm not sure about all of this stuff so i called for another judge.

well, since this guy never fold to 4bets and concerning the deepness I probably make it slightly bigger preflop, like 32. Also he doesn't 3bet a lot, he is doing it basically with value hands only which indicates that he might not fold a lot to 4bets as the stats say as well.

On the flop I bet slightly more again, like 37.

turnplay: bet 50 and fold to shove is no option imo. We have about pot size left effective. b/f is no option. Although the turn card sucks I simply shove and hope to get called by worse. I don't want to fold by the river to a bet if I check behind.

my line: slightly more pre, slightly more on flop ---> easy ship turn.

Best regards,
