    Naw. He didn't like his hand enough to bet it out and make you reconsider. You took control and thats what happens. Did he always play this passive?

    He played his AA horribly. He was begging to get them cracked. I would have bet the pot on the river if I were you. He would have called it.
    -It seemed like a good idea at the time-

    Couldn't bet more due to the flush/straight draw there was a small chance he was on a draw.
