Anyway, shortly after I come back, I tangle with Yul. He raises to 30 in MP, and I repop in late position to 80 with rockets. Only he calls. Flop comes AKx, and he bets into me, something like 75-90. I raise to 200, taking him all in. I figured he had at least AQ here, and he was going to call me. OTOH, I maybe should have called and let him bet into me on the turn, where I would have certainly gotten the rest of his money (assuming he was nice enough to bet, of course). In the end, he stews and folds, flashing the J of what was almost certainly AJ. Think waiting would have been a slightly better plan against this hand, but against most of his range, all the money was going in no matter how I played it.

This was the hand we discussed a bit on Friday night and like my AA hand it's the one I thought the most about over the next two days.

I reread the bet sizing chapter from NLHE Theory and Practice and I think going over it you weren't going to get more money in the pot from him at any rate,I think the King killed you.

I said at the time I thought a call was the right thing to do but now I think you did the right thing with the reraise.
