His turn play is where i recognize the panic that sets in when you have AA and are afraid you've made a mistake. He recognizes that he has seat 5 beat and wants(hopes) that no one behind him has the 7. So he pushes in some kind of vain effort to protect himself, when in fact the only call he will get is someone he has beat (or a donk like seat 5). I know I've made those stupid kind of pushes on scary boards for all the wrong reasons before, I can only assume this guy did the same thing. I'm just glad to see that it happens at the highest levels too.

Nah his turn push is perfect. He can give a freebie on a J77r board but cannot just call on a QJ77, 2 hearts board.
