    I like the move. I do it often when I sense heavily they don't have it. And it worked so even better.

    Actually I quite like you matey.

    A very rare instance of a young guy on the Internet who seems to have some degree of self-awareness (smattered of course with the usual nonsense, but still kudos).

    Thanks Rex. Guess I'm not as bad as I thought. (not at poker, we all know I suck at that)

    The overbet is the bad part. You wanted critiscizsm, here it is. An aware player would recognize that (hopefully) you have been playing smart, and rarely making overbets. The size of this bet indicate you Don't want a call, which would not be true if you had a hand like KJ or such, you want the A8 hands calling here. I probably would have bet 200-250ish here. And I'm not fond of the FLop call... but It ain't too wrong either.
