Yeah and put the stakes on the post title so I don't have to read a 25nl post again (sry).

Wow this is awful, you let him dictate the odds for his draw to you then when he hit his draw you committed your whole stack, when you had about 4 to 1 odds against you. He's got 80-84% (from memory) of your stack in sklansky bucks right now.

Raise Pre-flop
Raise that flop. ABC poker. Don't slow play vulnerable hands.

QFT, T2P is very vulnerable when your hole cards are close together.
