Having analyzed what the player MAY have been thinking, I wonder if anybody has any ideas what he WAS thinking, given his cards. He had AK, so the third Ace really couldn't helped him unless he was alread ahead. Any idea what was going through his mind calling TPTK twice and then raising? Was it some elaborate fancy play? Is he just playing randomly? Am I overthinking this?

Because trips is a better hand than one pair. Bad players (and if he doesn't 3bet AK here he's bad) don't necessarily understand relative hand strength.

He could also be a thinking player, that just doesn't know what to do with the results he has. He easily could have put you on a high pocker pair/A and figured if he raised you before the river you'd just fold your your beaten pocket pairs or stop betting your weaker A. People like to slowplay for no other reason than to slowplay.

I really really doubt this guy's that smart.
I think most of you are way too used to the internet games. Most live 4-8 players barely understand what a small blind is.
I'm not surprised he had AK. I figured him for a weak Ace, but seeing stupid stuff like this isn't at all surprising. I'm sure he would have told you his entire thought process if you just asked; that's one of the cool things about live play. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
