Default Player read my hand blind ... can you?

This is in a $11 SnG at Stars. A player NOT in the hand typed out my holdings right before my opponent bet all-in (which I called).

He was right on.

I'm wondering if this was a lucky guess, or if my play was that obvious.

Here's some info: Been playing fairly tight, but had to take some chances once I got killed slowplaying a flopped boat. I worked my way back into respectability with two semi-lucky all-in plays. Guy who called my hand was pretty chatty, but appeared knowledgeable.

Results to come ...

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t100 (6 handed)

Hero (t1515)
SB (t2168)
BB (t1210)
UTG (t1650)
MP (t3624)
CO (t3333)

Preflop: Hero is Button with ? , ? .
UTG calls t100, MP folds, CO folds, <font color="CC3333">Hero raises to t400</font>, SB folds, BB calls t300, UTG folds.

Flop: (t950) Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 2[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 7[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="blue">(2 players)</font>
BB checks, <font color="CC3333">Hero bets t400</font>, <font color="CC3333">BB raises to t810</font>, Hero calls t410.

I've read my opponents hands right before showdown or on 4th street sometimes.

AQo for you or a 4 flush Ace high, or KQ. Your opponent is most likely on a flush draw also, if he held a pair of Queens or Kings or Ace's he would have raised you preflop and if they were queens', I think he'd have smooth called on the flop and hope'd another heart didn't come. He was putting pressure on you only putting you on TPTK or an over pair.

Or I could be talking out of my ass [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

Not talking out of your ass, this is the logical read.

However, it's not even close. This is what made his read so impressive to me.

Try again.

Joker, and the card with the little calendar on it

No, actually I think 72o is a possibility here if it was completely illogical, but he still got it.

I say this because I see so many yokels calling for 72 whenever they see it on the board. '72o takes it down!' and other stuff like that. AA is another one I see people calling for.

My first guess was AQ, but truthfully, I don't think anyone could narrow you down to more than a range of hands here. Just not enough info to put you on a specific hand.
