AA hand

[Da GOAT]

Any comments? Think it was second hand of $16 speed SNG so no reads.

I will post the second part of this hand later after some comments.

He seems to have bet weakly on the flop which could mean a very poor bluff attempt given the checks before him.

Possibly a medium pair which you are dominating.
Or a set, which has you crippled a little.
I'm cerainly firing back a big reraise, maybe 550, just to see what he does.

I'd also have raised that more pre-flop, around 180

Your line looks fine but TheBoss147's betting pattern is suspicious no? Call's 20, then another 100, then leads out for 200 (into a 720 pot). A middle pocket pair is a good shout. I guess he could be holding eights and now have trips but that would make his 200 bet weak especially given the number of players in the hand.

Either way, I think you have to raise it up from here (to around 600) and tread carefully if he calls (presuming everyone else folds).
