Only one suggestion: proofread your posts before submitting them.

Take the 'Texas' out of the hand history.

And don't show the results next time.

Thoughts, comments, suggestions- Check over your hand before you let it get to the boards. You need to delete "Texas" from the HH before you convert it. Also, you probably played your monster hand fine. Post something more marginal, it will help you more.

got it to work, thanks for the tip on deleting "texas".. weird.

You prob played this hand to full expectation. You might have been able to make 1-2 more bets but this is only theoritical and you made a mint on it anyways. Usually, people dont post on maximizing profits on here, they post on real though decsions that they are unsure of. Your decsions here were to make as much as possible, and you did a good job. There wasnt much beating you, so you dont need to slow down betting here, and if your overly aggressive, you may loose a caller or they may slow down so you did well.
good luck
next time u look at the table in disbelief after a hand, post it here...
