Very nice, proud moment I'm sure. Not sure why u let him see the flop in the first palce when he has 10 blinds left. U should raise or put him all in every single time here. I would also put him all in on the river, after taking that line preflop flop and turn. But if u are to raise on turn, Id put him all in there too. U represent the 8or k by raising right? and check the river? Worked out.

I raised the Turn because I didn't think he had anything on the board, and was working on a FD or str8 draw. Then he called my raise, and I got suspicious. I just couldn't justify putting him all in on the river when he checked to me. I checked it down to see what he had. Also, the reason I didn't raise PF, I was afraid I'd get owned on my first hand against a pro I didn't want to get tooooooo embrassed

Yeah it's always great to test your skills against the pro's. My claim to fame is i played in a short handed PLO cash game with Huck Seed for over an hour and came out slightly ahead. Always nice to be able to say you've played agaisnt a world champ
