NL Texas Hold'em $10 Buy-in + $1 Entry Fee Trny:16149164 Level:4 Blinds(50/100) - Wednesday, September 28, 16:48:12 EDT 2005

** Dealing down cards **
Dealt to Hero [ Qs Kc ]
jerrodhoutx folds.
Infector26 folds.
Villain raises [200].
john43302 folds.
Homey02 folds.
rollpro folds.
mitchn7 folds.
Hero calls [100].
Villain had done a lot of min raising throughout the game; appeared to be pretty loose and aggressive and was using his stack well. I've got KQ, 100 to call in a pot of 300, lets see a flop.
** Dealing Flop ** [ 8c, Jh, Ks ]
Hero checks.
I hit top pair decent kicker, a few hands to worry about but I would be beating a lot of hands I'd seen him showdown previously. I checked hoping for a bet since I had seen him pop off continuation bets a lot of the time. I was going to come over the top if he bet since I really thought I was ahead.
Villain bets [500].
Over pot sized bet makes me stop and think. Does he really have something this time? AA? AK? KJ? KK? JJ? If he did have a big hand then I felt certain he would have bet smaller to try and induce a call from me. It was the big bet that made me think he wanted me out of the pot and that he really did not want a call.
Hero is all-In [930]
I go all-in and stick with my plan. I really think he's trying to buy the pot and I am ahead.
Villain calls [430].
Very quick call from Villain.
** Dealing Turn ** [ 6c ]
** Dealing River ** [ Jc ]
Villain shows [ Ah, Ad ] two pairs, aces and jacks.
Hero shows [ Qs, Kc ] two pairs, kings and jacks.
Villain wins 2310 chips from the main pot with two pairs, aces and jacks.
Hero finished in eighth place.
Hero has left the table.
I completely misread villain and I feel that I misplayed this hand entirely. It was his oversized bet that really confused me.
Should I have popped out a probe bet (200-300) on the flop hoping to chase him out and gain some info? Fold to a re-raise and shutdown on turn if he called?
What would have been a good line to take to avoid going broke on this hand or at the very least lose the minimum amount of chips?
