Some here may disagree but here is my take:
 He raised the lmpers to 6 bb pre flop - fairly standard. It forces them to define thier range a little or make an error with bad cards.
Flating the flop -Agains micro players raise-folding may be preferable here, but if he was concerned about the flop lead (small donk bet could be weakness, or intended to provoke a raise), checking works as both pot control and to build the pot. Raising only pushes out hands he wants to continue in the hand. Raising has merit, but what hands can open this flop? Ax, sets, 2p, pair + straight draw (22 or 44), and flush draw. AK + the draw dominates all but the set and possibly 2p.  A set or 2p is not folding this flop. From the description though it sounds like he was not being careful, just greedy.
Raising the turn is pretty bad; the bet size would indicate extreme strength (trying to induce a raise) or a draw (less likely) - Flating here is probibally the correct play. Raising 3x is particualrly bad because of the pot size. 
River shove is horrible. 
 If he is cashing at WSOP events, it is luck.
