Looks good

The majoirty of your outas are clean once you have it HU going to the river.

Nice hand

[ZootMurph]

The reason I posted this, as I'm sure you could all guess, is because I took a lot of flack for this hand... playing 86s against a raise.

The enemy had a set of tens, and complained incessantly at me for the next half hour, before he ran out of money and called it quits. I admit I know how he felt, as he took several bad beats at that table. Last week, I lost over 100 BB in one day (~1800 hands), and it was brutal... won with AA 1 time out of 7 (3 flushes, 2 straights and a set beat me). But I just wanted to verify with others that I'm not a fish /images/graemlins/smile.gif

tell that guy to be sure to tell you when he has topset on the flop, so that you can make better decisions in the future.

well played.

[Chris Swiedler]

isn't 5 outs on the flop 4:1 odds? just learning odds, so i could easily be wrong.

I would have tried for the checkraise on the river, unless I knew that my opponent didn't value bet the river often.

Otherwise, it looks good.
