At 24 years I'm a youngster. Think you did the right thing. If he fooled you into thinking it was a snap, then the call was right.

On players who can go in motion it can be a tough call as to whther they are simulating the snap. Usually, and i say usually, the player will make a quick movement rather than a smooth start and sometimes you can read his face, "I just blew the snap count" written all over it.

As a referee I would rather see an official blow a quick dead ball foul than let it go only to make up some story about motion.
