I make a pretty loose open with T8s here. Is this fine, or is this too loose?
As played, when BB donks out for 1/3 pot I decided to just call. I'm getting great odds to call with my flush draw, and I have position. Considering it was 3way, I didn't think raising would be the best option.
On the turn I picked up some extra equity with the gutshot. When he bets the flop and then checks on a somewhat blankish turn, I don't expect him to be very strong here. I think he most likely has a hand like 6x or a small pocket, or a draw himself. Against this range, I do pretty good. I decided to check behind to try and realize my equity.
On the river, most draws miss. 75 got there, but it's tough to give him 75 when he called an MP raise. However, he could be betting missed flush draws here, or maybe randomly turns a hand like 77 into a bluff here. Since I was getting great odds with his small bet, I decided to look him up, having hit my 8.
Is this okay, or is it better to just fold the river?
