what could i have done?

I would agree that there isn't much you could have done about this one. Its good that it didn't cost you that much money.

not much you could do. i wouldnt want to raise anymore with AQo from early position than you did, and thus there is really no way for you to bully 99 out of the pot. and after that, you cant push the guy off his set. i dont think that i could have laid the hand down either, so i wouldnt feel to bad about it.
