Was it worth it to try to protect my shitty middle pair with 8 people in the hand? Should I have called the river? I just couldn't imagine having him beat, even though the pot was decently big.

Why are you playing this hand?

UTG+1 calls, UTG+2 calls, MP1 calls, MP2 calls

Not enough?

I'd be concerned about the 2 to act behind me and the blinds, and having to call a raise.

Fold preflop. Postflop is fine.

I would need to be on the button to call, I don't care how many limpers. Unless it was such a loose passive game that I could be sure it wouldn't get raised behind me.

Would you play this from the button? With how many limpers? What about from the cut off, with how many limpers? I was under the impression that Kxs is fine from late position, and since there were so many limpers, I decided I might be able to play it from my position. Is this that bad?

I'd need the button, yes. And at least 3 limpers. Maybe others play it from the CO, but I don't.

(this type of hand gives me alot of trouble too so I'm going to take a shot then see what everyone else says).

First I'm not even playing this unless it's clearly going to be a large pot, and that was the case here.

I like the flop raise. You've got alot of outs. Any
/images/graemlins/club.gif two 4's and at least 2 Kings. SO I think that its a good value raise, and it thins the field.

But on the turn, your /images/graemlins/club.gif outs are shot. So You have 4 clean outs. Is the 8 BB in the pot enough to call ? I'd say no. The fact that you didn't even get a free card is a bad sign no me. I don't think that MP2 is on a draw but MP1 could be. I'd probably fold the turn.
