With all due respect, these one word answers really don't explain to me why its such an "awful" play. Can someone please give me at least a full sentence?

Don't play poker for 9.75 hours on a sunday and then enter the $215. Gosh I'm tired. Are we ITM yet?

Bet the flop. Protect your hand. Pocket aces aren't invincible. If you don't think he hit anything on the flop, bet small for value at the very least.

Nah that's fine if he's on the tight side, just know that this is gonna happen 1 in ~7 times.

The AA thing, however...nope.
