Overplay A's preflop in a cash game?

I didn't think so, anyway.

I raised to 10x bb on the button, after his 3.5x bb raise.

He re-raised.

I re-raise

He raises to put me AI (he had a little over twice my stack), I shove. Board was junk.

He had AK, and I think this is another example of overplaying that hand.

I've seen it done and I've done it myself with Ak and AA. I would think think that when you reraised he should of be more carefull that you had High pp, but you do always want to see a flop before you push so it's not a bad thing to call the 2nd time around if you could. I'm glad the better hamd won in this case. I'm not quite sur the odds on that hand maybe some one could help me with that. Oh yeah it was obvious he was being a bully and he got put in his place. Have a good day Sam/gomango.

I think you played it fine. You had the best hand and your opponent deicded to have a rasiing war with you. With AA, I'll shove every time preflop.
