And the answer is . . . .
Fnord and Sossman and the others who agree with Fnord and Sossman are right.
I was 95% sure I had him beat. I was 95% sure that if he had anything other than AA or KK (or possibly QQ) that he would lay down.
What I didn't consider (because I was so sure I had him beat, etc.) was the consequences of if I went all in and was wrong. So I took too big of a risk to win a 1900 pot and way overbet by going all in. He had AA and busted me out.
I should have raised to 3000 and folded to a reraise. Got too excited and confident in my read that I jeopardized the great spot I was in . . . . live and learn.
