Thanks

not at all. I think you'll probably lose, but your hand is too good to give up and you are drawing live on the turn. as for the river, I think 8-1 is easily sufficient enough.

amazing laydowns will probably lose you twice as much as they save you

Preflop: Raise. You are likely to have the best hand here and there is no reason to let the blinds see the flop cheaply.

You title eludes to you losing this hand and you should consider that when you post again. You may get more responses without such a title.

I would call the turn and river bets, your hand will be good enough in 2/4-Party here to do so.

Think of how differently this would have played if you raise preflop.
