If u shoved preflop with the AA, i doubt seriously he would have followed u with 87 suited, but then again thats exactly what donks do, u gave him a chance to see a cheap flop, he saw he had a chance to make a str8, and u pushed and he followed and he got rewarded, so it points to calculated odds, and a good and LUCKY player

I do not see what you are saying is reflected your attachements the first one you show 7 10 and we do not know the result.
The second one you A A if it is this one you went 10BB pre and called by medium suited connectors these days and freeroll you see that very often however most of the times you do not know what they had if it does not go show down and you win the hand.
These suited maniacs like a called them are more and increasing regularly.
The AA hand was when i was 3rd in chips big stack the turning point for me if i win with the Aces i go too first place and play only premium pockets and play for top 50 but was not meant too be i notice if you shove with premium hands in these 3k rolls most of the time the worst hand wins.

I agree like i said these are suited maniacs and would probably called all in.

So..... A gut feeling that your cards will win is justification for shoving? Well, it may be...but generally only if the odds are correct. Otherwise the player may as well go and play bingo. Having a gut feeling preflop that your hand will win is pure gambling. There is no skill or etiquette invoked.
Good luck next time
