Ok so i re-raise really to just test what he's holding as alot of players play really loose at these limits (if he had 4-bet i would have folded). It also served my double purpose of hitting the flop with initiative. I cbet the flop, which was called - and from there on out i played defensively, not wanting to double barrel.
My thought process was that he would have 4-bet with AA, KK or QQ so i probably had a slight edge over him, thinking he had perhaps AQo or AJ or such, when he called my cbet i had him on AQ hence the defensive play. when he checked the turn after me i thought he was setting me up to bluff him on the river and when he checked the river after me i was thoroughly confused.
Do you think i should avoid playing this aggressively pre-flop and turn this early in the tournament? How was my cbet sizing, bit small? Should i have maybe made it 2/3 pot?
