How was this play?

I am wary of hands like this...knew my ace was beat, had him on ak aq on his raise based on what I knew of him..but it was suited and my button. Obviously it went well, but did I play this about right?

Thanks

  • the thing is you could only beat a bluff, it has to be a stupid player to do this and i usually like to see a sign first from a previous hand or him playing to many hands or something. if you do this it will work against bad player but you'll look silly calling someone else who made there set, and they'll have you on aces for all they care. it worked but take note if your losing alot with tptk....how can you know he doesn't have better. but adding the fact he could be doing it with Ace of diamonds then maybe its a call for sure, no doubt the queen in his hand made his bluff + flush draw a dream worth chasing for him, not for me
