Fold preflop.

Fold on the flop ($25 to call in a $58 pot = just under 50% for a draw that will come in 31% of the time).

If you'd made it that far without pushing, chances are you would have been better off folding the turn too, as the odds get even worse (16% to come in).

You got very lucky. Over time, this will lose you money. The only exception is if everyone else in the hand is folding, and only one did.

 Thanks I though so. The pre flop raiser has been raising on junk all afternoon so I thought I had 50-50 with him and other people picked up on it so they went in $5 pre flop. I figured I was the underdog in the hand but wanted to see how big of a dog I was. Thanks for the ingo Jeffrey much appreciated.

Even though all he had was king high, bad push. You didn't know he just had king high.

However, if you knew exactly what his cards were, good push. 'Cause now you have the straight outs, and outs to pair your hole cards, which should put you at just over 50%.

I don't know how you can put him on crap though...

 I can't that is why I was doubting my play. I know I won but I didn't feel good about the win.

If that's the case, you're "winning" hands will often be a pair of 8s or some such.

Find a better spot to get all your money in.

Just becuase he's playing poorly doesn't make it ok for you.
