i think its good you got away from the hand. i would have too. i dont like the call on the flop though. either push or fold. none of this semi 'my hands pretty good but unless i hit an A or K on the river, the pots yours' bullshit.

i wouldve folded to his raise and that woulda been the end of that. you showed you can lay down good hands and thats important. youre not really trying to judge this play based on the cards, but rather his table image. if you called him down and he shows KQ youll think youre an idiot. he projected a loose table image and you think 'theres no way he has me beat.' try not to call ppl based on a loose table image. loose players can get cards too.

calling him based on a read is a different story.
