limp/calling with aces and then getting your money in when drawing semi dead is not a good way to win at poker

Limp/calling as opposed to what? Would you suggest a strong raise as the first action?

Poker is a game of situations - when the situations warrant it you would sometimes be better off trying to create a big pot instead of just taking down the blinds. A situation such as being dealt AA when short stacked at a final table would be one where you would try to build a big pot and take a risk that someone may draw out on you. When you are short stacked and have AA you don't generally want to work out how to make the minimum from your hand.

There is no such thing as drawing semi dead - I think you just made that up.

Obviously if he had X-Ray vision and could see the other players cards then he wouldn't have called - unless he could also see that the next card was going to be an ace. But he had an overpair and no way of knowing that he was behind. Would you always fold AA post flop if there was no ace on the flop - after all your opponent may have just flopped a set and you only have 2 outs to win.

I think you must be levelling. Unless you have been under the impression that what we see on TV is what the players see?

I'll explain it to you just in case you are mentally challenged - Even though we can see the hole cards each player has, the players only know their own hole cards. This means that Rafe did not know that his opponent had made trip sevens. In fact the BB raised which made it hard to put him on 72, it was more likely that he had paired the queen giving him queens and sevens which Rafe could beat with his aces and sevens.
