How did Hannibal win battle of cannae?

Hannibal had deployed his troops in such a way that his cavalry and best troops stood at the edges of his battle formation while his center was kept realatively weak . The result was that his center quickly went into a controlled retreat when the Romans attacked while Hannibal's flanks held their ground or did not even have to engage. By pushing back the center without pushing back the flank troops, the Romans created a semicircle in which ever more Roman troops entered with hardly any room for manoeuvering. Then Hannibal's cavalry and flank troops who had gotten almost automatically in the Romans' rear, attacked. The Romans, squeezed togeter in the encirclement they had created themselves, were attacked from all sides and killed off wholesale.
