There's no way I'm folding here, but a bet doesn't seem right either. If I bet and he has it, I lose more money than just calling. If I bet and he doesn't have it, he folds and I make nothing.

if by it you mean the flush, no. If you bet and he has only a club, there's a very good chance he's calling and drawing almost dead. If he has just a pair, same. If he has a pair and a club, he's drawing to 4 outs and there's a good chance he'll raise. If he has the straight draw he's drawing to four outs, if he has a gutshot and a club he's drawing to 3 outs. In all of these situations, he is going to think his hand is much better than it is because it is unlikely you have him outpaired and outclubbed. I think you are way underestimating the value of your hand.

I don't have a problem with preflop, btw. I think letting a random hand in with AA is often better than giving away the fact that you hold a premium hand, so unless you're often isolating from the SB ...
