As the ref walked up it looked like for sure that was going to be a yellow - wonder if he second guessed when he realized it was going to be a sending off.

Of course he did. It's how it goes, refs become more lenient when deciding on what to do with fouls committed by already booked players. Unless it's 100% obvious, they'll be cautious which is too bad.
