Justifying your play using his retardedness probably isn't best.

While his play was obviously bad, it's possible yours was too

The fact that my play was bad has already been proven by the fact that he called. I clearly misinterpreted his sanity.

I was completely expecting him to be 3-betting me light here. So I thought I had to punish him for this.

it's hard to say anything without knowing what you had, but I guess you got your justification that this guy is indeed bad :P

Re: 50NL - A8o c/r in 3-bet pot gets raised
 

I had ATo, but does that really matter?

Re: 50NL - A8o c/r in 3-bet pot gets raised
 

Does anything in this thread matter? You know he's bad, I know he's bad, this thread is pretty useless

Re: 50NL - A8o c/r in 3-bet pot gets raised
 

two things
1. AT is pretty much terrible for calling a 3 bet with even IP.
2. if someone 3 bets me pre then checks the flop they often have a monster or are weak tight/ this guy isnt weak tight but his line screams strength so I dont know why you would try to bluff him here.
oh and sometimes players just dont like to fold a pair when its heads up like this esp with an ace kicker.

good instincts that this guy was weak but not a great spot overall.

Fold preflop.

you just weren't able to gauge how insane he was
