Default Ridiculous 600 BB pot at the Bellagio 5/10 NL

I was playing at the Bellagio 5/10 game yesterday, and I saw the most ridiculous hand I've ever seen live. Ok, so I don't play live that much and I'm sure you've all seen worse. Sue me.

I don't remember the exact action, but I'll relate it as best I can.

Donk in EP limps. He has a huge stack, probably like 4-5k which he made by luckboxing. Another player raises to 50. Some young guy who's one of the only TAGs at the table and probably the best guy there 3-bets to 200. Donk calls.

Flop is 953, two hearts. TAG leads for 200, donk instaraises to 600 = he has jack [censored]. TAG thinks for another and says "800 more". Donk calls.

Turn is an offsuit 2. TAG says, "well, I'm pot committed now" and shoves for I think his last 1400. Donk calls.

River is another offsuit 2. TAG shows KK and the donk mucks. At this point, the table is all going on about "wow, heart draw?" And I'm like, [censored] that, this guy didn't even have something as good as a heart draw. So I say, "dealer, I want to see that hand". Donk looks pissed as the dealer turns over AKo, no [censored] draw.

He then proceeds to try to justify it by saying, "I didn't know he was that strong". I think this the first case I've seen of "I put him on AQ".

Michael Davis, normally I am never one to tap the glass and during the whole hand even after I asked to see the cards, I made no criticizing comments on his play. The reason why I did it is because he had been raising me on every low flop when I was the PFR and I wanted to know if he range there was any pair/any draw, or if it was ATC. I had no intention of making him look like a complete monkey, though that's what happened in the end. But it's over now and all that's left is a story.

Asking to see his cards here is a pretty dick move.

so basically what you're saying is that this complete donk repeatedly outplayed you earlier in the night, and you had to resort to a breach in etiquette to even figure out how he was playing.

hahahahaha

nh.

Did you think he was colluding.

IWTSTH Is not in place for you to build a range to gauge your opponents with, you do know this, right?
