I only played like 13 hands with this guy so I dont really have much to tell you about him except that he was being fairly aggressive. I believe I played this hand as well as I could have but after the hand he said I played it bad and I was awful. I just kind of laughed at him and shrugged it off but after thinking about it i am wondering if I could have played it "better".

This hand is a trainwreck.

1) Don't limp buttons.
2) Your flop raise size is comical, and I probably wouldn't raise in the first place.
3) If you're going to bet the river, just shove.
4) Your opponent played the hand just as bad as you did.
