AK hand seems standard
you saw my post before i added this part
i get that you had a read etc etc and reads are important, but it's important to remind yourself that reads are nothing more than narrowing ranges and improved accuracy on tracking tendencies, it's one thing to know she'll stack off with two overcards on a paired board, but i don't think you're being honest with yourself if you say "i knew she had ak/aq and would call a shove" that's way too accurate and precise to ever do anything other than get you to make horrible decisions in the long run because the more precise you get with her holdings and actions the more often you'll be wrong
agreed she may just be that terrible a player that plays incredibly transparently, but would you also shove with 22 here if everything were the same?
seems like you're way above the the 1-2 field and should do well and just gotta plug some leaks
my advice is make friends with some winning regs so you have people to discuss hands over - your success in this is going to much easier if you have access to objective commentary from others as that is tantamount to free coaching
we're all rooting for you, glgl
