2/5 Live tricky spot with Aces on button after straddling $10

Hero is a reg at the casino, LAGtard at times, ultra nit at other times. Bluff happy, gets called down by majority of thinking players (known to do unconventional plays to level opponents) Villain knows Hero also likes to call down light. Lots of history with this villain, haven't seen him step out of line often but have seen him call down river all in vs uncapped range with an overpair as well as 4betting with Ax ss.
Villain plays for a living, solid player with that makes a lot at our local game. Probably one of the best players at our casino. Have played tons of huge pots with me. Plays TAG.

New table, full of regs Hero looks down at A c A s on the button after losing a full buy in to set over set. Hero straddles for $10, SB folds, BB calls, MP3 (Solid Reg lots of history) raises to $40. Hero raises to $80 (was tilted from a few hands ago and didn't realize he raised to 40 instead of the usual $25 I also say, "oops shoulda raised more"). BB folds and Villain thinks for a moment and calls. Flop is 7d6d4s - villain checks, hero bets out 115$. Villain raises to $330. Here's when I am thinking about folding, but since I was tilting hard already I decided to make the call and reevaluate the turn. I took quite a while to call and I am sure villain could tell my hand wasn't very strong. Turn comes 9c and villain jams for approximately $500. I tank for a while and flip aces up and he puts a tip on his card and begins to hand to the dealer. I proceed to fold unhappily.

My question is: since I already called the flop raise, should I just get it in on the turn? Since I don't have Ad I was leaning towards a call but what types of hands would he be raising that call a raise out of position heads up? Is he value jamming queens or kings that appear to be underrepped? Is this too exploitable to be folding this hand after straddling and minraising? If I had made it 130$ like I usually would have I would have stationed it off. Any advice would be appreciated!

Thanks!
