I couldn't understand player 8s line PF and I could only think he was getting annoyed, because he had been playing so many hands before this one, calling down 3bets everywhere, seeing lots of flops and losing quite a bit of his previous winnings.

I didn't feel his line suggested a premium hand and after his random raise isolated me, I felt confident against the majority of his remaining range (TT-22, AT+,KJ+,QJ+,connectors) so I wanted it all in the middle PF.

-EV hand

I think the way u played it is fine. Your hand will often be strong enough to 4bet yourself in the first place so jamming over player 8's min reraise is fine.

AK just has so much raw equity preflop that u can almost always be prepared to play it for stacks.
