Beautifully trapping with pocket aces
Here's probably the best job I've done of convincing a guy to get all of his money in the pot with me. More surprising, because the tournament had barely started, the blinds were really small, and I didn't get the impression that he had that good of a hand.

Player michael1123 calls (20) - no way I wanted to steal the really small blinds here. I was hoping for a decent raise and a good deal of callers, and then I'd raise big enough to get it down to one or two callers . Didn't happen that way, so I improvised.
