This was a hand that my friend was in that he relayed to me. While I have more experience than him, I don't have much at this level, so I figured I would come to the best place there is (and then relay him the information so I sound smart...nice right?) Either way, he was wondering if he should have gotten away from this and what he did wrong.
I figure he probably should have gotten away from if after calling and being reraised on the flop, but I don't have expereience here, so please help sirs.

Sorry about the converter, I had errors so I just kind of made-do. TIA
Edited to say: Sorry if this is an insta call and just bad luck. I have no experience here, I realize only 2 hands beat him. But I don't know if it is an insta-call, if so...Just let me know. TY.
