Default Flopped a boat in live game. What\'s the best flop line?

2nd hand at table, and I don't know any of the players at the table (live 2/5 game).

Stack sizes villian ~($700)
Hero ~ ($300)

Villian raises UTG+1 to $20
Someone in early MP calls
I pick up black TT in the CO and make it $75

Sometimes with no read, and a caller I'd just flat call here, but I didn't think MP player was that strong, and thought I'd get this HU's.

UTG+1 (villian) calls. MP player folds.

Flop: Ax, Ah, Th

Villian checks. I think for a little while and then push.

Is there a better line here? My obvious options are bet 1/2 pot to full pot, but what am I gaining by doing this? I could sloooowplay, but I don't see the point. Obviously AK, AQ will likely go with me here, and I may induce another pocket pair to come along who thinks I may be trying to buy the pot by largly over betting. Either I'm getting action here or I'm not.

If you have a better line in this situation, please provide reasons. I'll post results after.
