Well, the river is messed up, but I'm pushing the turn. If I'm not pushing, I'm folding, which is reasonable, since villian is in the SB and could have any number of suited sixes which out kick you.

Calling the turn is bad, because it doesn't protect against a flush draw.

your 9 kicker is weak. And the SB is betting like he has a 6 also, and is betting as though he has at least trips. Since you were willing to take it to the river and call all of your chips The better play would have been to fire over the top of him for all of your chips on the turn. That way if he has you out kicked it gives you the chance to win the pot. Loosing a hand like this is a classic example of the risk in playing "junk" hands along the lines of A8o Jxs. You have to be able lay them down when you are beat.

What id he turn over, p2's?

I posted the big blind, first hand in thats why i was in the pot at all, J6 I felt like a total donk which I guess I was. I knew he had a 6 but couldnt let it go.
