Re-raise more on the last PF bet. Like all in would be good.He played his perfectly. He's got top pair on board and an OESD. What's he going to do, fold to the worlds weakest flop bet?You have to jack it up more pre-flop with AA.You let him win this pot on almost every street.

It was limit. I couldn't go all in.What I meant was I tried to make it more expensive, but I don't see how I could.

it was a limit game and no you couldn't avoid it. Why can't people just accept that aces get cracked? You can't expect him to lay down top pair on the board after the flop with an up and down straight draw. You just got unlucky that he hit his cards, move on to the next hand. You should remind yourself of all the times you've cracked aces yourself.
