Would you have made this same play with only 1000 chips to start the hand?? A lot of players you can easily put on a big pair because they do the reraise with QQ, KK, or AA. Your turn bet looks very suspicious to me but, you do have the chips and if I had KK, I wouldn't call either unless I had 3000 chips as well.

Very nice hand!!

Spyhard had pocket kings.

What did you put your opponent on when he raised you? Did you think you were still ahead? Granted this is Party, but the range of hands which will re-raise in this situation is pretty limited, and none of them are particularly good news for you.

Why did you call the flop bet? Did you think you were ahead? Were you hoping to improve?

The turn bet was interesting, and it worked out, but I don't like the way you got to this point. (And I don't like to look for monsters, but if he's got AA, you just walked into a buzz saw.)

Edit: Didn't notice that he was short-stacked, which limits the damage he could do, but this still looks like a good way to piss away your chips.

i thought this was pretty clear, but i guess i will spell it out. no, i did not think i was ahead. the idea was to move him off KK/QQ.

I like your play here against a very solid player like spyhard, Frozen, or yourself. Very risky against the majority of players I work with on the $10 to $50 tables. One question I have- why wait for the move until the turn, why not check raise the flop?
