I loved cleaning this guys clock last night - I think I got this one down perfectly, but let me know. I at least need to gloat over the fact I got to sit with everyone's two favorite types of ATM's, and take the money!

I''m relatively new at a 2/4 table, with around $120 in my stack. Super-Aggressive (SA) guy is on the button with over 400, Steamboy is in the middle with about the same as me, I'm under the gun.
I've watched SA bet out a minimum of 20 on every preflop, even when he's holding trash, for the last 6 hands. Steamboy had apparently lost 2 bad beats to SA already, and was on tilt (at least if SA was in the pot).

I get QQ in the pocket, and knowing that SA is going to raise, I figure let everyone else also put in a few bucks too, and flat call. Steamboy raises to 20. SA, true to his nature, raises to 60.

Time to take it down, right? I push all in, and get the staredown from Steamboy - I think he assumed only he would be playing this one. He calls, and SA calls, and flips JJ. I choose to keep my cards hidden.

Flop 3 rags, turn a Q, river a J
Steamboy shows his AQ, throws them at the dealer, and is escorted out of the casino.
SA is laughing his ass off at the whole scene, and then I flip my queens.
Priceless.

SA's face

He did a serious double-take, yelled "Oh HELL NO!" and stormed away and missed a hand.
He came back and apologized, though. I think he was targeting poor little steamboy, and didn't like having "his" spotlight taken away.

And yes, I bled out all except for 20 bucks from his stack in following hands - nothing as big as the first one, though. But with his kamikaze aggression, it really was some of the worst hands I've ever played and still gotten paid.
