I think that Tom had "theoretically" known how to use the AK Curse, you know, Knowing the incatation and everything... Let's also remember that Tom Jr. is a gifted Hogwarts Student and he probably did the curses first on animals. and i don't think that the Unforgivable Curses is that hard to do. In OotP, Harry had used the Crucio Curse on Bella and it worked... for a little while... and remember what bella said? I dont have my book with me but I think that she said that anger doesn't make the curse effective... the user must mean it... savor the pleasure on hurting or killing someone in order to use it properly. And I think that Tom Jr did: he meant to kill his family, and following logically the attitude of the present day Voldy, had the pleasure of doing so.


Cheers!
