This is my first hand post, and I'm a relatively new player, so please be gentle.

I would seriously consider ditching this pre-flop. Just from my own limited records, KTo is a loser...in EP/MP.

I would fold this pre-flop.
I would fold this flop (why? well, because you have two overcards, which I don't count for much with this large a field...you have a BDFD to a ten high...again...not worth much, and you have a two-gap BDSD...again...not worth much).

Turn. Well, now you finally have a reason to be in this pot, but I can't find myself terribly excited about it. Raising, at least, is good---cleans up wierd outs, maybe...but I still think you are behind.

River...well...maybe he has 23....maybe he has the nut straight running scared....maybe he has two pair.....maybe he has a set.....but whatever he has....You shouldn't be here.
If you won...good, but don't be results oriented. This was a hand you could have easily ditched both pre-flop and on the flop.

when i'm multi-tabling, I'd hit auto-fold before anyone acted (ignoring the poster here). i'm not limping with it. i'm not raising an EP limper. i'm not open-raising from MP2.

InchoateHand did well.

Fold preflop.

Flop it's a super loose call on a very draw heavy board.

Good raise.

Meh, I'm not that worried, but just calling on river.

But you shouldn't be in this hand in the first place.

Thanks, I'm now mucking this hand preflop most of the time.
As it turned out UTG+1 showed k5o for two pair.
