At the time i thought raising would blow him out the pot. Being in position i thought if he caught something on the river he'd either c/c a pot sized bet from me or else lead and maybe call a river minraise from me. When opp donked, i just thought he had nothing and wanted to look weak so that he might donk the river thinking i wouldnt make a call with a mid/low-pp or was just drawing.
I want him to make a hand on the river so i can get him to pay me, but when the river plays itself out i actually thought he had one had specifically and didnt put the flop play and river play together.

Though what is your preference when you push
he's got an overpair, i want him to gambool hence my c/r all in rather than bet/3bet line. Also, when i actually flop a hand im not folding, or slow play aces/flop a set, i want to give AK enough space to commit chips after a reraise to maximise ev.
