whoooose your daddy??

One of my best played hands to date.. biggest pot in 6-max ever I know for a fact that even 2 weeks ago I would have played too scared and probably just called his turn bet and bet a small amount on the river, making much less.
After his turn bet I read him for an ace, and raised. When a river blank fell I moved all-in to make it look like I was trying to buy the pot. He bit the bait.
Look at the other guy's remarks afterwards

Very nice hand, I don't think I could have done that though. Nice read.

Horrible call. That guy must have really thought you had jack shit to show down A5o on that board.

EDIT: that reminds me, I had a situation almost exactly like this at NL100 a few days ago. I raised the button with 45s for a blind steal, and BB calls with AKo. flop is 46T, AK led out for the 2/3rd pot, I raised him, he calls. turn is an A, and he checks (??? a decision that cost him alot of chips) and I check behind. River is a 4, completing my set. he bets $2 and I just go all in for over 100xbb representing a pot steal. I double up.

It's really not too bad of a call. People do this all the time when they think its going to be a split pot. For example, when a straight is on the board by the time the river comes and the ep guy checks, the lp player often will go AI. The other guy obviously put him on an A and thought it would be split. Nice play though, this is the power of the low suited cards, nobody believes you. Gotta love it
