You are insane. Pre-flop raised it with that hand? You are far than lucky to have caught full house though.

You could've extracted more money if you had bet around $15 because that would've been consistent with your betting pattern. $25 clearly sent out a message that you are holding a monster and can't be beat. So, even if he had something, he might've called that ~$15 bet assuming that he was pot committed, etc.

Only 1 caller preflop, looks like a solid preflop raise to me.

yea, i do question the 25 on the river since they folded. i'm not really good at maximizing profit here yet, because let's say i bet 15, and he calls. well, i wonder if he would've called 25? i generally bet down to make sure i get a call on the river, but a lot lately they have called it without hesitation, and it leaves me wondering am i really getting all i can out of these type hands. this guy loved his hand, and it took him the full 30 seconds to lay it down. i guess maybe 20 next time?

and, i think some other people on this site will appreciate raising with 74 i hope
