AK, no clubs. Muppet. happy days for Nicky.

Tackle

A8, or would that be giving him too much credit?

Ah yes the Iron balls. That would be a great move wouldn't it?

The preflop mn raise and calling the big raise meant it was either Ax or a mid pair so I figured 88 was the one and only hand I could be afraid of, but he pushed so fast I seriously considered folding. The all in with nuts phenomenon will wreck your head sometimes. That's excactly what they do is push really fast and hope you'll call without thinking it over. I closed my eyes and called. He had 66.

Grimacing and calling is probably the only option; Id expect to see A8/Flush draw here more than a set or a real overpair.
