Don't show the river card next time.

You should have called the turn raises. All the raises mean is you will only win the hand by making the straight, which you are 5:1 to make. You had the odds to continue in a huge pot yet you folded - that's the biggest leak any player can have. You might lose one or two more BBs from missing, but you will win 20 BBs when you hit! You certainly should continue!

From the action it's obvious someone has at least two-pair or a set, but that's irrelevant! Hitting the straight will win it for you! GO FOR IT! DON'T FOLD THAT TURN!

Nicely played on the flop. Turn... call call call, even if it's capped. River it's so ridiculously clear you're beat because of the turn action, don't even bother calling the river.

Good idea, I hid the ending in white.

I also just realized I had 10 outs, not 8. If one of the 6 falls, I would most likely win the pot.

With that much turn action, I would just call if a 6 hits on the river. Either you sucked out and beat someone's two-pair, or you're behind to someone who just made a full house (or who flopped a straight). Your OESD most surely will win it for you, and from that alone you should continue.

Striker - I see.. under what conditions would you play those s000000ted connectors?

The table was very loose/passive, so I was not expecting anyone to raise, yet I was expecting more to call. I kind of took a gamble on this one.

Definitely from the button and maybe from the CO (depending on the table), but I want POSITION w/ these cards.

I think you were in a late enough position for it to be an okay limp given the table conditions. It's still a loose limp and you have to know what you're doing post-flop for it to be profitable, but it's "okay" in my eyes.
