We all get hands that we 'FEEL' are good ones. An 8 2 suited and 2 of your suits are on the flop! How is that not a good play? Both played their hands well.

I've played a pair of 2's to the river with, I think nothing but face cards around them. Got one 2 on the flop and the other came on the river. I had a feeling and stuck with the hand. I had 3 two's on the flop and I had to pay dearly to see that other 2.

... and that's why they call it gambling.
