He had 12 outs - nine clubs and the other three sevens (not the 7c). Unless you're giving him an extra out for his runner-runner 8s and 9s possibilities o'course. Nothing wrong with how you played it IMO though. A 4xBB raise from LP with KK is a fine raise pre-flop and for him to call you with 89s, well maybe he felt like gambling. Maybe he just had a mountain of chips! I would have been happy to have the action, anyway.

With a Gutshot and a flush draw on the flop he was more or less even money - 12 outs twice made it almost a coinflip for him to bust you by the River (you were about a 5% favourite). I'd have probably called in his position, but then I probably wouldn't have got to see the flop in the first place
