Default AK with AQx flop

Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t50 (7 handed) converter

saw flop|<font color="C00000">saw showdown</font>

MP2 (t1925)
<font color="C00000">CO (t960)</font>
Button (t390)
SB (t2335)
BB (t345)
UTG (t670)
<font color="C00000">Hero (t1375)</font>

Preflop: Hero is MP1 with K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img].
<font color="666666">1 fold</font>, <font color="CC3333">Hero raises to t275</font>, <font color="666666">1 fold</font>, CO calls t275, <font color="666666">3 folds</font>.

Flop: (t625) A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 6[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="blue">(2 players)</font>
<font color="CC3333">Hero bets t685</font>, CO calls t685 (All-In).

Turn: (t1995) 5[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="blue">(2 players, 1 all-in)</font>

River: (t1995) Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="blue">(2 players, 1 all-in)</font>

Final Pot: t1995
<font color="green">Main Pot: t1995 (t1995), between CO and Hero.</font>

The villian in this hand is slightly loose and passive. He will call off more chips than he should in most situations (his slowplays and drawing hands seem indistinguishable) and on the river will usually go all in or fold. There are several hands on this flop that I really don't want to see him showdown, but with his passive betting style I don't know how to differentiate them from the crap he might hold. If I min bet the turn and river I risk the least amount of chips and still might have some fold equity, but if he has a spade flush draw, Ax, or Qx I might let him draw out on me cheaply. If I put him all in with a pot sized bet, I may be giving away all my chips to an AA,QQ, or AQ. What is the best postflop play here?

Results below:
<font color="white"> CO has Qc Ah (a full house, Queens full of aces) </font>

Thanks!

for some reason, i saw this coming before i peeked. that said, i would have played it the same way. you said he was loose and aggressive, so theres no reason he wouldn't play Ax or pairs the same way.

tough hand to get away from.
