If he has two-pair, aces up, then he needs to spike 1/2 remaining bullets in the deck by the river- not likely. I would not try to frighten him on the flop.
If he's got an ace he's definitely going to be scared shitless if the flush draw completes. If the flush completes WE are going to be scared too, and we won't be able to play a big pot. If we want to stack him we need to get lots of cash in fast. If he's got a strong ace or two pair he's not gonna let it go to a single raise. Slowplaying here is a recipe for disaster.
