SB: $56.97 (113.9 bb)
BB: $31.50 (63 bb)
UTG: $30.51 (61 bb)
MP: $60.17 (120.3 bb)
Hero (CO): $61.27 (122.5 bb)
BTN: $63.99 (128 bb)

Preflop: Hero is CO with 4 A
2 folds, Hero raises to $1.25, BTN folds, SB raises to $4, BB folds, Hero raises to $8.50, SB calls $4.50

Flop: ($17.50) 5 9 T (2 players)
SB checks, Hero checks

Turn: ($17.50) 2 (2 players)
SB checks, Hero bets $10.85, SB calls $10.85

River: ($39.20) 8 (2 players)
SB checks, Hero checks

Opponent kind a average 50NL regular with a little bit lower 3Bet(5.9 on a decent amount of hands).
I don't like betting the flop much since we have no equity and he is tight. Then we turned a gutshot and I think we have AA for value here, so it's good to bluff this hand.
And OTR I think he will have to much value in his range(I think he may fold hands like AJ, AQ and some AK OTT).
Is there a better way to play it?

Flop: I think going for a delayed cbet is fine. I think his range here is probably mid pairs and AQ most of the time if he's tight.

Turn: Bet is fine

River: Hmm it's very likely that he's on a 3rd pair or AQ high type of hand. Problem is that you don't rep all that much, unless you have proven yourself capable of taking the check bet bet line with AA. Exploitatively I do think that people rarely take this line as a bluff, and someone with a nit mentality will probably give u credit so I don't mind bluffing the river.
