    I am pretty sure this guy would have called me no matter what I bet preflop. He put his life on the line for a draw, which you see a lot on stars. So this has me wondering...

    1. I get drawn down on too much and sucked out on more than I should. SO, do I start just pushing my draws like the opponents?

    2. What do you think of the way this was played? I put him on AJ or Jx based on the way he was stabbing the pots and coming up with the worst starting hand.

    I was not out and came back to finish ITM. No, not kidding. I questioned if I played this wrong. But the other thing I am wondering more is, am I not chasing enough?

    I understand it was a cooler, not complaining about that.

    You did not play this wrong. And no, I don't think anyone folds open ended straight flush draws.
