On the flop is where you screwed the hand up - you are either ahead or behind and drawing dead if he has AA (actually drawing for runner-runner quads which is as good as dead) if you think u are behind fold, if you think that you are ahead play like you are ahead - but unless you meet other evidence play the rest of the hand consitently.

By the way you described him AA is a very possible hand

There is no shame in folding 2 pair

PFR makes it pretty clear hes not holding AQ. Personally I dont think villian is holding AA here often enough to lay this down.

Here, the problem was there were only two hands that beat me. So even though I had a strong read/feel that he was holding AA, I felt it would be weak to fold my 2pair to the first sign of aggression.

Btw I did reraise the flop (which he called), I edit it in.
I dont remember how much I reraised though but it was not enough to define his hand, which I feel like was my main mistake. If I had reraised like a man on the flop, I probably would have known where I'm standing.

The mistake was not defining my hand earlier, but I still think the fold on the river was the right decision (aside from not getting to this situation in the first place).

Like I said, I think two other times that day a tight player minrased preflop in a limped pot with only ~3 players, and both times it was AA or KK (and I have seen this play other times before in the micro limits).
I just felt so sure he had aces, not only because of the minraise, but because of everything he did.
Those 1/3 pot bets just seemed so much like he was trying to build the pot (or even hope for me to see it as weakness and reraise).
If he wasnt sure his hand was the winner, he would have either raised bigger to see whats going on, or even fold to my reraise (he definately was able to make laydowns).

With this flop, any hand except Aces had to be scared when it's all tight players. ATQ, so many possibilities for a tight player to hit it.
