You should be saying unfknbelievable if you want your raises to be respected.

Also moaning in the chat that stars have doomswitched you usually results in a change of fortune.

If this is constantly happening to you, try re-raising more preflop. At the moment, he's not making that much of a mistake calling you, the stacks are quite deep. Repop him a bigger amount (say make it 350 to play).

Preflop, he only has to call 160 into a 370 pot, I make it 300 to go. Post flop you can't blame him, he's sucked out and flopped top 2.

Think I might just call the min raise and be wary after the turn though...

The only thing wrong with this hand is the preflop 3 bet make it about 300 and play from there.
