    An open ended straight draw with 2 overs is 50/50 to win the pot As far as I know, so was this a +EV move? I'm trying to get better at determining things like that.

    you have 14 outs. however i would say all the kings and qeens are dead, due to the strength he showed (ie: he has a set or 2pair, so only the strait saves you) this brings it down to 8 outs making it extreamly -EV.
    I get more ass than a toilet seat. All shapes/colors/sizes.

    first off, i dont think you should be raising with KQs in EP.. secondly, i dont think u should be calling a $33 all-in raise with just the OESD.. he could easily have a set/2pair, which means ur only drawing to 8 outs.. and since u got called pf by so many people.. im guessing most of ur aces are dead outs.. which means ur at like 4 outs

    I fold here...

    you have an open ender that's all.... the history shown your K and Q were still alive, but 90% of the time they are'nt

    However I hope you bookmarked this fish in your friens list...

    BTW, I know how it feels... keep the faith...
