Interesting Hand AA vs. 54 suited --- Bad Ending

Playing against a very tight player, I call a $35 bet ($5/$10 NLHE) from big blind with 5s4s. Flop comes 236, 2 spades. Tight player continuation bets the pot $70. I raise to $225 as I don't want the spade draw to ruin my nuts. He calls and I'm putting him on AA/KK/QQ. Turn brings another 2, no flush. I move all-in for $725 (pot is about $550). He calls and shows me AA. He rivers another A, giving him the full house. I'm just so friggin PISSED right now. That's exactly why I call tight players with suited connectors, and I didn't even slow play (which is usually how I donk off a lot of chips, letting them catch up). I just don't know how AA calls $725 with that board.
