[LO8] Crying call that river?

[bodie]

The only way I would call here is if:
a) it was a gigantic pot
b) I had reason to believe that MP1 would make a play at the pot

The fact that MP1 called behind you all the way and then bet out on the river certainly makes it appear that he made his hand. I wouldn't even like flopping that straight, to be honest with you, with the flush draw already there. But of course you did all you could, betting every street and MP1 chased it all the way. That's O8 for you.
