Hi, need some help with some AA scenarios where I think I'm loosing value but I don't know how to handle it.

Assume no reads on villains

Scenario 1: Some draw and a donk bet

UTG: $0.80
Hero (CO): $2.65
BTN: $1.08
SB: $0.90
BB: $2.63

SB posts SB $0.01, BB posts BB $0.02

Pre Flop: ($0.03) Hero has [As] [Ah]
fold, Hero raises to $0.08, fold, fold, BB calls $0.06

Flop: ($0.17, 2 players) [6c] [3s] [Qc]
BB bets $0.06, Hero ???

Scenario 2: Dry flop and a donk bet

UTG: $0.74
MP: $3.21
CO: $5.57
BTN: $1.05
SB: $2.51
Hero (BB): $3.36

SB posts SB $0.01, Hero posts BB $0.02

Pre Flop: ($0.03) Hero has [Ad] [Ac]
UTG calls $0.02, fold, fold, fold, SB calls $0.01, Hero raises to $0.16, fold, SB calls $0.14

Flop: ($0.34, 2 players) [3d] [2s] [6c]
SB bets $0.04, Hero ???

Scenario 3: A royal board without the Jack

BTN: $0.27
SB: $3.20
BB: $1.33
Hero (UTG): $4.97
CO: $2.93

SB posts SB $0.01, BB posts BB $0.02

Pre Flop: ($0.03) Hero has [Ac] [Ad]
Hero raises to $0.10, fold, fold, SB calls $0.09, fold

Flop: ($0.22, 2 players) [10c] [Ah] [Ks]
SB bets $0.14, Hero calls $0.14

Turn: ($0.50, 2 players) [Qh]
SB checks, Hero checks

River: ($0.50, 2 players) [Qs]
SB bets $0.14, Hero ???

Scenario 4: MW pot checked to the raiser (me!)

BB: $2.00
UTG: $3.38
MP: $2.07
CO: $1.22
Hero (BTN): $2.00
SB: $2.39

SB posts SB $0.01, BB posts BB $0.02

Pre Flop: ($0.03) Hero has [Ah] [Ac]
UTG calls $0.02, fold, CO raises to $0.06, Hero raises to $0.18, SB calls $0.17, fold, UTG calls $0.16, CO calls $0.12

Flop: ($0.74, 4 players) [2h] [5s] [6c]
SB checks, UTG checks, CO checks, Hero ???

And that's it! 4 AA scenarios I don't know how to extract value.

hand 1: raise to get value from Qs and FDs
2: raise to get value from overpairs
3: i probably raise the flop because there's a lot he can call with and only QJ beats you. River is obvious raise.
4: Hero bets .60 imo

Ok, these were my actions:

1: I raised over the pot, villain mucked. Not sure if raising pot or close would make any difference but this is a scenario like others. Most villains just shutdown after my raise.
2: I shoved, villain mucked. Again this is a common scenario. Not much different from raising regarding villains reaction.
3: I shoved, villain mucked. This scenario is not common but I wanted to see if anyone would shove here.
4: I shoved (you can see a trend here right) and everyone mucked.

Shoving is fishy I can see. From some hands I might get some calls if I just raise. I think that's one of the biggest problems in getting value, knowing how much and when to bet or raise or even check.
