    I realize that I was playing a draw on the 2nd to last hand but it was the nut flush draw...I really question whether I should have called his all-in. I'm thinking I could have waited it out a little longer...but then again 4 to a flush heads up with A9...he could have easily had nothing.

    Next hand was a mild suckout but by that time I don't think it mattered.

    Anyway, feel free to rate my play on these hands. Was the nut flush draw too risky? I really didn't think he had a flush...but I was a little buzzed from some beers so I probably didn't have the BEST read on him. What pisses me off is that I was pushing everyone around the entire game and ended up getting beat.

    Hand 1 was an easy fold.

    Hand2 Raise him to 3-4xBB when he completes.

    hand 3 (T4s) Raise it or fold it preflop. Id push or fold or on the flop after he overbets the pot.

    Hand 4 with the A9. Iffy to call the all in, I would be more content to call if I had paired the flop at least.

    Hand 5 easy push.

    I would have laid down hand 4 on that draw.
