Having decided to slow play my aces, is there anything else I could have done here? Probably bigger bet on flop and turn me thinks but other than that not sure what I could have done. Any suggestions?

    re-raise pre, dont slow play aces unles heads up imo

    Why did you decide to play them slow here? any reads on villain etc cant just decide oh i feel like slow playing here! just silly, still never play slowly even with reads get as much in as possible pre and then bet, bet, bet, as long as not the most dangerous board
