Re: Bluffing
I dont think it is safe to assume he will fold AA here. He raised PF and then bet $8 on the flop, and as you said you only started with $20, so about the most he would have to call would be another $10 or so, so I think he would go ahead and call. If your stack size was larger, I think it would be a decent move against someone you "know" has AA.
The other problem with this move is that even though you put him on AA, you dont know his other two cards, one of which could be the 8. If this is the case, you are drawing to two outs.
If you had a larger stack I think the play would most likely work those times when he didnt hold the 8, but in this spot your stack is too small. With the 8, it doesnt really matter how big your stack is, he is going to call you about every time.
