    I know I made some mistakes, too aggressive wit the All-in. but advice would be helpful. The table was tight inclding this player. Thought I was just going to win just the blinds, with the raise. Should I have put him on ace, 8?
    Holy crap I cant play against Yoda!!

    Preflop I'd raise more, $2 is kind of smallish. He might not have stuck around for $3-$4. From the other side of the coin, I've gotten burned this way when I had KQs or something and Mr AA or KK just calls my $1-$2 raise, then I get burned with a flop like Kxx rainbow(where x's are not the same). Overall I'd still bet more preflop, though

    On the flop $6 was fine. Couldn't have read having an 8, but I wouldn't have gone $30 with that after the turn. With a rainbow flop, a half-pot bet would've given you the same info. If he's all-in there, you fold(IMO)
