How do you like my play in this monster pot?

Preflop is fine, lead the flop.

Preflop: I think this is worth folding here for 1.5 bets, as you are out of position for the rest of the hand and 87o is not that good

Most of the time I would fold this myself. But the reasoning for me in this particular pot was that there would be 12 SB in the pot (I was sure nobody would fold to a raise after entering the pot), so I'd have to pay 1,5 SB getting 7/1 from the pot. I was thinking that at this table with a few reasonably aggressive players and everyone in on the flop, I'd have some huge implied odds IF the flop hit me hard. If not I'd only waste 1,5 SB (I would of course have folded on the flop if I didnt have the odds to draw).

Flop: There is no point to 3 bet, you don't want to eliminate anyone with garbage, because you are either going to make the best hand or not, you are going to have to have the best hand in the showdown and it doesn't matter how many people are in.

I agree with most of this. There are still 6 people in the pot at this point, and I have about 6 outs (probably a ton of death cards, any card pairing the board or any club).
I guess I simply got carried away (I had the odds to call with my draw, but not the equity to reraise for value). The raise might have some deceptive value though, although I agree that it was a bit crazy.

I think you played the Turn correctly.

After turning the nuts I just kept going. At this point I have UTG on a flush draw and want to make him pay. The other two I'm not sure about, but probably two pairs or sets. I figured at this point my equity was about 50% (any card pairing the board or a club would probably kill me, and there could be a small chance someone had a bigger straight. I just thought "Cap it!".

River: It is fairly likely that when you are raised, you are most likely to be splitting the pot at best, and if you are splitting then you don't want to push out UTG.

[/ QUOTE ]
The way I reasoned on the turn still applies. I thought UTG busted a draw, and had put the other two guys on two pairs/sets. I thought I was ahead, and I didnt expect UTG to call anyway, so I thought "cap it!" again. Make sense?

fold that preflop. that is a terrible call.

you are being too aggressive on the flop with an open ended straight draw for my tastes. i would just call the raise and see what the turn brings. from the turn on you are golden.
