Default Blind Stealing and Perception

Scenario: Local B&M Cigar Club that I was invited to by a friend. STT for like 30 bucks. Not a card player in the place. Just guys messing around for fun. So we can assume that the thought process of the player in this hand is low.

Blinds are 10/20 and your stack is ~150

On the button you get A5s - it folds around to you

In the actual game I did not go all in but I essentially stuck myself by raising to 100. Online I would not typically make this move but I thought it might be necessary here. This is because I thought that if one of the blinds saw me go all-in for so much more than the pot, they would think I was "bluffing." My point is maybe the AT-A6 range would call here. Besides the typical answer of: "well i guess it depends on the people at the table" - what do you think would be your standard raise amount here given the situation you are in.

so you'd make no adjustment to your strategy given the players in the blinds?
