PP25NL. Villain is a solid player, as indicated by his stack size. Was this stupid (i.e. should I have gotten away) or just poker?

Preflop raise was revolting. But I'm playing the rest of the hand this way.

I dont understand the river raise. What is he calling with that you can beat? Check/call is ok. Bet river/fold to raise is okay. You have shown nothing but strength in this hand. I can't see anything you beat calling your raise on the river.

I agree with you on the pre-flop raise and was baffled by it as I reviewed the hand - I never raise less that 4xBB. I think it was a mis-click. Oh well.

why reraise the mass overbet -he's called all the way and very possibly has a boat. not sure u should even call but if you feel he's making a move after your check just call.

He, of course, showed A7s for the boat.
