If i read the stacks right he has what 300 or so chips left ? i say check and call a push, no way to get away from this now if he has less than 300. if i read the stack size wrong correct me.

You were right, after he called my flop bet he had about 300 left

well he could eaisily have a pocket pair so thats why i said check call push rather than push. since u dont want someone u have beat to fold. but now way to get away now if he called off all but 300 of his chips to chase an ace so be it.

I check here. If he has a flush draw (and it is very possible he called half his stack on a flush draw, being its on Party) - He will likely check behind you. But he might have trips. I would probably check the river as well, calling him if he goes all-in (to induce a bluff) - he may get desperate with only ~T300 chips left.

I put him all in, he called and flipped over AA. Didn't see it coming especially since he didn't reraise my inital preflop raise
