I re re re raised the pot to look super strong and ofc hope to take the pot, a lot of people use the re raise to show strength( not always the case) so ive now narrowed him down to 3 or 4 hands AA,KK,QQ or AK when he called the flop bet i had it in my head he has AK and provided no A or K came im all in thinking he folds. As i said this was not the greatest of plays by me but sometimes its good to " go on one"

I didnt find out what he had and no i didnt get any abuse.

This hand can show why player notes can be usless sometimes, a guy yesterday who i stacked with kk v qq pf said " i should have looked my notes as i have you down as tight" hehe this made me laugh. Yes i can be tight but i can also be very loose so his notes are useless.

I dont and never have played "book poker" if everyone did that they would all play much the same, i find it easy to spot players who play from a book and know what i can and cant get away with. I am instinctive and play with gut feeling and how i read the hand, but obviously i take lots of things into account, odds, %s, position, who im playing and their state of mind etc
