Its not that improbable when you are talking about the enormous implied odds that comes with stacks that deep. Plus, in high stakes games players don't follow strict sklansky rules. Sometimes they raise with 56o to steal pots. It says that only the big blind calls so if you were in late position the big blind might have though it was an attempted steal.

Unless he's a poker genius and somehow knows I hit quads, he's playing the hand in a very stupid fashion. Trip aces won't call him here because the flush is so obvious, and trip aces are the most likely holding of a player who raises pre- flop and then transparently slows down on a flop of AA2.
Sometimes when I'm playing and I get the absolute nuts on the river and there is almost no money in the pot I will go all-in. Instead of trying to win another 50 cents I will bet 50 dollars because I only need to be called like one out of 100 times to make it worth it.
