This worked out for the best but I second-guessed myself anyway. I thought I had defined my hand pretty well with the initial raise. I did take a long, long time to repush but I still think it was broadcast loud and clear what I was holding.

Would you slow down and take it all from him on the flop here? Keep in mind I don't have a ton of experience playing ring.

Even if you 4-bet less than AI, all the money is going in on a non-A flop anyways.

definitely true, but I was wondering if long-term I am letting skilled players off the hook preflop by giving them the chance to fold KK...

I had seen a couple of people make 3-4x BB raises and get 5-6 people to the flop...

To be honest, I cannot say exactly what made me do it. It's not what I would normally do, but I had made a couple of big raises with hands like AK/JJ around 6-7 preflop and either whiffed/got outplayed on the flop and I was hoping that someone would wake up with a monster and think they could push me off it.

other than the size of your initial preflop raise this is shockingly standard.
