Crazy Hand in a Donkament

This one kind of goes in the "don't slowplay your big hands vs. calling stations" file. Also in the "min 3bet is not always the donk method of playing a big pocket pair" file. Again, I swear I have not doctored this HH:

Seat 1: CO (2,145)
Seat 5: bruechips (UTG) (3,000)

*** HOLE CARDS ***

Dealt to bruechips [Ks Ad]
bruechips raises to 90
CO raises to 150
bruechips raises to 570 (Vs. some donks I might even consider folding here or at least playing more cautiously. But this guy was such a nut job I felt pretty confident just getting in as much money as possible.)
CO calls 420

*** FLOP *** [5s 2d 5c]

bruechips bets 700 (Keep betting for value...this bet size was designed to get him to shove over the top)
CO calls 700

*** TURN *** [5s 2d 5c] [6d]

bruechips bets 900 (Another value bet with AK-high)
CO calls 875, and is all in
bruechips shows [Ks Ad]
CO shows [9d Qd] (Well played, genius)

*** RIVER *** [5s 2d 5c 6d] [7c] (Blank river saves me a tirade)
