Hey Waldo18,

Preflop is ok, probably slightly better with KJs.. We could think about squeezing the offsuit combos in this spot.

Flop lead is nice.

A little bit worrying facing flop raise but hard to see that many better hands. There are 3 combos of 8's and 1 combo of JJ/TT

I think turn and river are a little tough but I'd probably end up calling down on a blank runout. It's probably the weakest hand I'd call down here. Exploitatively we may even be able to fold if villain has passive tendencies and won't raise any worse hands.
