Might well be, but the villain was very LPP (VPIP > 70) but pretty weakish IMO and I didn't want to scare him away with betting too much. Just wanted to get his stack bit by bit and it worked just as I hoped.

Of course a bad beat story could have been quite close there...

Hmm.... I usually tend to call such a smallish reraise with AJs (would not probably call a 4-5x my raise), perhaps not with ATs anymore, but with AJs def.

BUT: I want to hit the flop hard in order to continue. And a flop of A23 is not something that I consider hitting hard in face of hard postflop agression. I do try to take it down with a bet or raising a weakish bet but if the villain tries to sell me AK by betting heavy or reraising me, I let it go.

Am I being donkish there?
