I don't know about this hand...

Are you sure the guy was on tilt? I know its frustrating to be raised out of the pot on the river but its not like his AA lost to KK. Even though you reraised the pot, you're basically calling an allin and hoping for a coinflip.

Assuming he was on tilt, yes, people on tilt will push with small pocket pairs like this, but they will also have overcards and bigger pocketpairs just as often. Add in the fact that you have a guy behind you yet to act and I dont love it. If the guy tilts that easy, I think theres gonna be better ways to destack him as long as nobody else gets there first. I know that people get sick of other people saying "wait for a better place" but I think this is one of those spots.

I'm happy taking this risk. To me it looks pretty clearly like he has Ax or a baby pair (or maybe even nothing), and is just firing out a frustration raise. If he really has something good (AK, AA, or KK) I'll pay him off, but I've been right about this far more often than I've been wrong.

I'm not worried about the other player, either - he flat-called my first raise from the worst position (first to act if we see a flop). I doubt he has better than pocket tens, and I doubt he's calling my re-raise.
