I'm going to show V's hole cards from the get go. Folds to Hero in CO who RFI 2.5 BB with 22.
BN flats with AA. I do think he should have 3! here for sure.
BB calls and we go multiway to a flop that is very bad for AA. Hero flops quads.

BB X and Hero cant X behind here risking BN X as well. So Hero bets 1 BB to try and get some calls. Probably could have gone a bit larger here.
Both players call.

Turn puts another FD on the board and BB X. Hero bets again for a smaller size 1/4 pot. BN raises to 4x. SB folds. Hero calls.

On the river Hero leads for about 1/4 pot and V raises again to about 5x. This time I decide to re-raise and 3x is a jam so in it goes.

Hero calls and aces are cracked. Pretty bad runout for AA to be getting it all in.

Yeah, online small stakes, all you care for is for your big pairs to be uneventful.
Better collect blinds than loose a stack.

It's like mistakes on every street for the AA player. yeesh - lost the maximum.
 
There were a lot of mistakes here made by that pocket aces player and it just kept compounding onto itself. I actually don't know if he could have played it worse haha
