KJo in the BB HU vs. SB

[7ontheline]

I'm the BB, SB seems OK - slightly loose and aggressive, likes to raise my blind. Beyond that, not much as a read. Haven't seen him get way out of line yet - he did fold in a similar situation earlier when I raised his flop bet.

Am I over-aggressive here, since I'm down to any ace? I am not sure that my turn raise was a great move. I managed to improve on the river, but was my 3-bet too aggressive in the face of his checkraise?

i don't really like the turn raise, but the river play looks just fine.

Yeah, after I hit the raise button I immediately regretted it a little.

Of course he ended up showing me AJ and MHING. /images/graemlins/frown.gif Made me think the turn raise was even stupider.
