In David Colemans immortal words... What happened Next??

OK. So I buy into £100 fo at the club tonight, knackered, but eager for a bit of live action. 8,000 chips for your money gives you time to wait for hands in the first few levels. In the first level 25/50 I sit down and see pocket 8's small raise to 100 before me and I call. I make a set on the flop. He bets I call. He slows down and folds when I bet.

Next hand i'm dealt KK. Raise before me, and I reraise. He calls and we see a flop. 10 high rainbow. I bet 3/4 of the pot and he folds.

Next hand. QQ. I take it down. Then AQ. Q high board and I take it down. A great start and the LAG table was perfect when you're hitting cards.

A couple of hands later i'm on the button. The UTG player calls. folded around to the cutoff who raise to 250. I look down and see AA. Super bloody duper. I pop it to 600. BB folds and the limper under the gun pops it to 1200. Yeeehaaah!! The cut off folds. Not I'm thinking perhaps Ak, AQ, AA (unlikely obviously), KK, QQ, JJ or maybe 10's given the table i'm on. I put another raise in to 2500 total to just esure he hasn't got shite. He dwells up, i stare him down (hoping he see's the sign of strength as weakness) and finally he calls. The pot sits at roughly 6k.

What happens next....??

Is my thought process betting on track here?

For my liking your raises are too small but apart from that, what else could you do ?

Well as I saw you leave the table I know you lost.

Was the other player Anthony because he could have anything.

Nope. I didn't recognize the other player... not him tho'.

Sick way to go out, but that's poker.

Raises weren't huge, but it still represented a large part of his stack. I didn't want to chase him away if he had kings or queens. I would have been less upset if he had had a big under pair and made trips.
