Default Re: Did I play this hand terribly ?

I don't typically lead that hand on that flop...first you aren't folding anyone with a similar hand. You also don't have a "clean" OESD as 1/4 of your outs are flush cards that are losers for you potentially so you can't count them as clean. So you are leading into a multiway pot with 6 outs for what is likely a split pot...not good.

Once you hit your dream card on the turn how in the name of all that which is holy can you not get all the money in. There is a flush draw on the board, and judging from the action you have to think you all don't have the 8....you are probably ahead of someone drawing...CHARGE THEM THE MAX as they aren't folding at this point anyway.

To sum up, you bet the flop which was arguably a decent mistake. Then you didn't bet as much as you could have on the turn when you hit one of your 6 outs, which was a huge mistake. Then you compounded this by calling an all in on the river with the worst hand...so basically you did a bang up job of getting in money while you were behind, and not getting in money while you were ahead.
