5/10 AA vs a one tone semi-connected board.

Table has been playing pretty loose for an average online 5/10 game. I havn't played with the villain in this hand before.
BB has 900, I cover.

I have AA and raise to 35. BB calls
Flop 4d 5d 8d
BB checks. I pot it, BB min-raises

What's your line?

edit: sorry, I did not have Ad.

I call the flop min check-raise. Almost certainly fold the turn to aggression and bet out if checked to.

He's playing this like alot of people would play TP with a flush draw. It looks like he's trying to go for a free turn and river. If he has a made small flush a diamond would be a scare card for him (and you too). If he has a flush draw, which I would have put him on, he'll most likely check to you unless his eight is still top pair.

Call, trying to take the pot away on a 4th diamond is fairly standard for me.
