Flop: good.

Turn: seeing another ace just means that there are fewer aces out there that can beat you! you should be happy this came. Bet again!

Keep betting, fold to a raise. The turn ace helps you.

I didn't like the fact that villian called again. Is check/calling ok on the river??

I'm afraid it's not ok to check-call the river. Villain will show down a worse hand more often than he'll show down an ace here, and he'll almost always check behind a worse hand on this board. IMO, Remind yourself how huge your penis is then bet 'er out.

I would have bet out again... but i don't think check/calling is bad either... I have this gut feeling check/calling might be slightly -EV since:
<ul type="square">
theres the potential of it being checked through
any hand that beats you is likely to bet if you check
since he just called on the turn, he's unlikely to raise your river bet.
