<font color="CC3333">BB bets</font>, <font color="CC3333">Hero raises</font>, BB folds.

Final Pot: 8 BB (t8000)

Should i have slow played the pair of aces and risk everything on this one hand like i did?

I felt i was a much better player than my opp, so lengthening the game would have been to my advantage. IOW, i didn't need to trap, but i did, anyway, cuz it's more evil. I think i still played it fine, but i want to hear what you people think.
