This was at the tail end of a 600 hand session where I was barely up and then this hand and a few others put me up almost 100 in under 50 hands...

Just be thankful SB was shortstacked or you would have got stacked! Otherwise nice hand...

Tru, but either way I got my money in with the best hand so I cant complain

True.... But set over top pair when you have a big PP like KK or AA can be bad if you cant lay it down... Say he has you covered and pushes, do you call the push on that flop? He could have just as easily been on AK(s) or AQ.... It came out good for you no doubt, but it could have gone MUCH worse for you as well.... IF by chance I have KK and some that has me covered or almost equal in chips pushes on that flop after calling a 50X BB raise PF, I'm thinking LONG and hard about calling with KK because BB could just have easily had AA , or even AKh... You never know what some maniacs will call a 50X BB PF raise with, but if they are calling that you have to give them some credit for having a hand..

Didnt want to start a new thread, but these are some jewels too. The first guy was a manaic and had been pushing randomly, I was just waiting for the hand to pick him off.
Second hand the guy was a lil less crazy, but I really didnt see him playing AA or KK in this manner just from playing with him. Guess that proves you make the most when you play opposite of your normal style, b/c he woulda rocked me.

I wonder what stakes you need to play to get rid of those fish

Not that I could survive without them, just out of curiosity

Wow, Absolute Poker may actually be fishier than Party Poker! I don't get those callers when pushing with QQ. FishoDeath...do you push a lot at your tables?

I got pushed into with these hands. The first hand I had already invested so much I wanted to protect against a ace showing up.
