Hope it worked out.

Yeah. An 8 came on the river and I ended up with a straight. Big surprise, he had AA.

I actually posted this hand for a reason. A lot, it sometimes seems too many, of the hands posted here are ones where Hero played it right but ended up losing. Walking home from the club, I came to the conclusion that I had played this one pretty poorly and just gotten lucky.

Thanks.

And ML4L, I agree. Great post. Made a wonderful point I won't soon forget.
