Posted the whole hand, as theres 3/4 things I want comments on.

1. Good spot to squeeze pre?
2. The sizing of my squeeze?
3. The bet on the flop? - Once I've hit top pair, should I slow down as I'm no longer bluffing?
4. Am I right to call it off? I must b right?

Scotty opens quite wide from that position. He's just took half a stack off me on another table, with me making a move and snap folding to his shove. I probably look tilted, I am tilted, but still, it doesn't mean I can't have a hand here.

So he can fold alot, which should normally be job done.

If you forget the tilt bit, and analyse the hand as a 1 off, what do you make of it?

    I waz unlucky tho! 

    Some guy decided to pair-mine with his AK.

    He must have known exactly what was going happen. He must have known I was gonna squeeze pre, then he must have put me on a worse king, and knew the flop was coming king high, and therefore knew he was gonna stack me, so just flatted the big 3bet.

    Why can't it come 2 5 9 rainbow 1 time??? I didn't want a pair!!! :*(

    what did you think he had? flush draw?
    do you think you could of 3bet smaller pre?
    what do you think of checking flop?
    do you squeeze with any two or are there better hands to do this with and why?

    Im very un-sure about this spot post flop.

    That's why I posted, I really don't know.

    I felt obliged to bet and call it off because I had bluffed pre flop and got lucky.

    But looking back, I should check the flop, and probably call turn and/or river.

    When I bet the flop, I convince myself he cud have alot of flush draws and am priced in to call it off. It just feels like I can't play it that way then lay top pair down, but obviously that's nonsense.

    I need help.

    i dont mind checking flop.  bar the flush draw there isn't actually anything that should be stacking off with us that we are beating.  check let someone make a pair that is between a 6 and below a King and then get it in.

    i had like AJ i think.

    I dont think you got unlucky TBH and i think in a pot where your betting about 13 BB pre its safe to say that there is a huge chance at least one of them have a K and you cant be thinking your 7 is gonna come into play. I think your pre-flop raise would of only been effective if no picture cards come out as almost anyone is shoving if they hit top pair with that kind of pot.
