Playing in a on-line multi-table torny it is late in the game and I have a 7,000 stack. 2nd largest at the table only to the BB who has a 9,000. Though a torny hand my question relates to the NL nature of this hand so I posted it here.

Blinds are 400/200 with a $25 ante (9 player table).

I am dealt A /forums/images/icons/club.gif K /forums/images/icons/club.gif on the button folded to me and I make it 2,000 to go. SB drops, BB hesitates for 50 seconds and reraises all in. I called - flip'em up 6 /forums/images/icons/heart.gif 3/forums/images/icons/heart.gif for the big blind.

I had just moved to the table and had never played against this person before.

I thought to myself what set of stones do you have to have to make that move?

As per the hand the flop comes 63Q, turn 3 evening over.

I ran the hand on twodimes and was interested to learn that I am only a 1.78x favorite in this hand.

I had thought that it would be much larger given all the possible boards without a 3 or a 6.

How was my opening bet? Did I overbet (5x the BB/2.5x the pot) and invite this play or was it just a maniac that got lucky?

Thanks
