    My thoughts:
    Pre-flop
    From the table k8s is a decent starting hand. The mistake I believe I did make was by not raising pre-flop
    after flop

    I figure player 5 either has a pair or Axs or better. I figure p5 doesn't have the straight. I figure i have at least 12 outs. I also figure on the off chance that i have 15 outs with the 8 being better than the board. I have between 25-30 percent chance here. I really bet against p5 with a pair and rather take a chance that he has Axs.

    after turn

    I figure with Kings and flush draw that I am in a great position to call

    I really feel like the only mistake I made was by not raising pre-flop. What do you all think? I've never made anyone that upset and want to make sure my logic isn't too far off.

    No you fold K8s preflop every day of the week.

    On the flop you do not have hte odds to call his flop bet. Dont bother getting tircky right now, just fold it.

    On the turn you have every reason to reraise with TP + FLush draw.

    Lots of mistakes. 1) FOld preflop. Fold Preflop. Fold Preflop. 2) Dont be a calling station.

    Agree w/ VQ here. K8s is a dog poo hand. Throw it away, and don't give it a 2nd thought.
