Good Days Returning

I hope this isn't one of those comments you make, and then look totally foolish a few days later, but had 2 great nights on the poker tables and am seeing my confidence levels returning. I've been lucky in finding (then following) 2 players of such awesome stupidity, that have gifted me 50$ between them. This hand may give you some idea.
I'm dealt AA on the BB, and with 3 players in the hand, I raise about 4 x bb. All fold but one of my new friends and we see a flop of A 10 2.
Hmmm, what to do here, I have a monster, and with a bit of luck, he's got an Ace and he's never yet laid one down, whatever his kicker. So I bet 1$ and he calls. Turn was a 7 (no flush or str8 on here) so I bet another 1$ and he calls. Turn is another 2. I want to try and get more than 1$ - but at the same time don't want to scare him off, so I bet 2.50$ and he raises me to 7.50$!!
Wow. What the fuck has he got. Surely not pocket 2's. No, he would've raised the flop if he had that. So I re-raise and he pushes all in. I call and he turns over.....

Queen Two
Ha ha ha - nice pot to me, he must've 'sensed weakness' with my low bets :-)

This went on for about half an hour, and I managed to get a good few $ from him and another before they both signed off.

It sounds horrible, following someone to take money from them (legally, I hasten to add!) but someone is going to do it - so why not me?

Anyway, seems like the old magic is returning, and I am 100$ in profit from 2 nights play. Hope this is a sign of things to come, rather than the quiet before the storm. With my recent run, I've dropped down to 10c or 25c BB NL, but my BR was only $100 so I'm trying to stick to 10c and slowly build back up. A few more nights like the above and I may move up quicker than I expected, but for now - I'll stick to the 10c levels.

Anyway, getting late, nice to post some positive news for a change :-)
