Because I thought that his most likely hands were air or a weak A that lays down if convinced I have a stronger A. I was planning to put him in on the river until I hit, at which point I checked because I was positive he would be to a check and didn't expect him to have a hand he could call a bet with.

Half of my reason for posting this was to have it beaten out of my system, because it's obviously loosing play overall. The other half being "woohoo! I sucked out!"
