I was doing pretty well in this tourney tonight. I made a big laydown a few hands before this, which put a dent in my stack. Then this hand happened against the table idiot.
Regardless of how this may look, I was confident in my read AND I like how I played the hand. Yes, he could have had something like 99 or JT here, but I was willing to go with my gut and take that chance.
So naturally...
