He reraised a guy 3 hands earlier and made a normal sized reraise so i put him on AK when he made this huge reraise. So I thought shoving on a non ace or king flop would be the best play.

I get looked up nonstop with ace high when i do stop and goes. Almost everytime they look me up they are behind. This guy was just lucky that this was one of those times. Whoever thought of the poker stop and go is brillant.

In LAPC Main Event BodogAri made this exact play against Joe Awada late on day 2, same hand AQ, for about the same bet size ratios, and Awada instacalled him with an unimproved AK.
