Your completion/no raise was shouting weakness to him. Hate to say this, but he outplayed you preflop too.

Re-read post please. You got it backwards. His completion/no raise shouted weakness to ME.

if you thought his actions shouted weakness, why not push? if you think you are ahead, get ur chips in ahead. instead, you waited until you were behind??

Well heres my thinking....
Ace high is best pre-flop at least 80% (if not more like 95%) of time here in my experience (where I play anyways.)
I figure by raising half his stack I'm sending the message - we're playing for all your chips or for nothing...
Instead I keep getting flat called in this spot...and I'm totally lost as to what the hell they have now...pretty sure I still got the best hand and all...but the flop play becomes an extremely tough spot...
So I definitely see the reasoning behind all-in'ing it pre=flop. If they want to call with a hand I'm ahead of - God bless him. If they trapped me - that happens too sometimes.
