Was my play really that bad?
So a week ago I made that topic how I won (well in the end chop but i still take credit for the win) a 50 player MTT.
Now I mentioned in the topic at the final table where I got AK and the guy had Jack 10 suited.
Then after a little bit of raising it's just us to the flop and it comes Ace, Ace, 8 or something.. I remember he had nothing at all.. I check over to him and he quickly goes all in and I snap call revealing my 3 aces, knocking him out giving all the glory to the benevolent Macke.
Now I've seen the guy two times since and he's bugged me a bit about the day after and he seemed friendly about it gave me a little shot in the arm and a little chuckle about a big slow roll. Last night we ended up at the same table and he brings up a HUGE slow roll he got a week ago while in a hand to another player (didn't acknowledge who it was against until I pointed it out to the new player.)
Now I have to say I am a tiny bit annoyed at this.. it's only been a couple times so not that bad.. but it's not like I milked it, I didn't go on a speech on what he could have, didn't do a little monologue on how I shouldn't really call.. I didn't even say "This is so sick."
So I ask you esteemed poker players of PFC and Hellmuth's Mole did what I do really so bad? Would you be pretty pissed if this happened to you (Looking past the obvious answer of of course I got knocked out)
I'm thinking maybe it does have to do with my appearance a little bit, I'm in my very early 20s I'm kind scrawny at only 140-150 pounds at 6 foot or so and I wear glasses.

IT WAS NOT A SLOWROLL. A slowroll is when you have a made hand and deliberately wait to reveal your cards. You simply SLOW PLAYED your hand, to fantastic results.
You are 100% in the right here. You had the better hand the whole way, and got him to put his money in way behind. He's being a huge dick by dwelling on it and bringing back up. I imagine that he was angry with himself for making a really stupid mistake, and taking it out on you.
Glad to hear that.
