Would you have played these aces the same way?

I like to call the flop 3-bet sometimes and see how MP1 reacts. If he caps be prepared to laydown if a heart comes or if there is significant turn action. Otherwise probably call down.
In your hand, I'd bet the turn.

I think it's fine. The pot is big enough that betting does not protect anything and it almost certainly doesn't improve my chances of winning the pot. That means that every bet becomes a value bet... and when the queen pairs up, I think I've lost a whole lot of value.
