Pree flop i thought about raising, but decided to play according to the SHC
On the flop i thought his c-bet weak, and after they both went all in the odds seemed too good.

I would play it the same way post flop :) I would probably 3Bet preflop though.
I agree, you have great odds, you have ~50% chance to triple up, assuming you will only win with a flush or a straight, and almost 70% if pairing K or A is enough to win (rough estimate with the rule of 4).

I would 3 bet preflop for sure to 450.

Flop is super sexy, get it in.

only i would "go sexy" on the flop by pushing AI instead of raising.

nh well played...
there are certain opponents I would 3bet against preflop.. mainly opponents I know are capable of still going broke with ATo r whatever..
But vs unknowns calling is best to keep worse Ax and Kx still in the hand.. and is way better than 3betting imo..

flop is fine as played.. 2bet him for value and as a semi bluff.. and after a shove and a call you have great odds to draw to the ultimate nuts
