    Cos they get people like you to call. lol Nah i'm only joking, unlucky on the hand.

    They're hoping they're gonna get called and win a really big pot but in reality they're only getting called by about 3 possible hands and it's pretty unlikely someone is gonna have one of them. They're losing alot of value mostly.

    ak , qq or worse. Never played against him before so dont know what hes about. If he was short stacked id call with qq or if it played out different, such as a small reraise and a low flop

    Maybe he knows he cant throw em away post flop, so is putting you to the decision from the outset?

    Yeah but 90% of the time, your opponent is going to fold here and you've won a tiny amount for your AA. You need to get max value on these hands.

    Only feasable explanation is he knows you wont fold.  Sure we can accuse him of a tonne of things, but perhaps his experience is that people will call here more often than not at this levels.

    And after all, he read it right.

    I'm confused. There's a 4x raise from OP, 1 caller, then an 83BB shove, show surely you're gonna make everything everything fold except AA/KK/QQ in which case you're losing alot of value, when hands like AK,AQ,AJ,AT,TT,99,KQ etc fold. Why not make it £2 to go? Set them in on most flops if ya like but at least you've got 2 £2calls pre in the pot already.
