top pair top kicker, I would have done it the same way.

Ditto.

i'm still very new this, but looks like a good play. the turn and river cards could have easily messed up your hand, so good to play it hard.

how about this: same hand, but instead of calling, HLN61 comes back with a $4 reraise.

what's the right call? if HLN61 had been playing good cards all night, i'd be inclined to fold.
