Flop was 2 4 7 rainbow. The guy instantly shoves all in for about $40, there was around $30 in the pot. I stood up, said I have 5 high but both of my cards are live, so I have 14 outs twice, 8 to nut. I'm getting almost 2-1 as an even money dog. I call.

Spiked a 2 for a straight. I don't care about the $4o bucks, just more interested about how my reads are. He had AK, so I was right, both cards were live and all my outs were true. I called a few big bets down with 2nd and 3rd pair that were good. I was happy with the overall session.
'brez, it took me awhile to decifer your code/poker lingo, but what the hell does "spiked a 2" mean, and how did you make a straight?

any good action at the red rock?

when are they going to take the belt from you and give it to me?
