If that hand had been played silently, I think Farha would have checked the river anyway. If someone had called that much all the way, he might have been afraid that his Aces weren't good anymore.

If it weren't for the dark flop betting, your analysis might be right. In a big pot, it's not a good board for Aces when you can't put your opponent on a big hand pre-flop.
