Not really. Can't be sure from pictures alone, but it does really look like them. I don't know many lookalikes, but I guess there could be. If that is the case, that is one very tasty mushroom to pick.

With the white spores this is likely an Armillaria sp.

From the picture it looks like brown spores to me. I had never seen Armillaria sp, but from pictures I must say it does look very similar.

I'm not sure about the spores color, could be white or could be brown. That color resembles very much the color of cyclocybe just picked. It goes more brown a while after picking.

There's white powder all over the tops of the caps at the bottom of the photo which is most likely spores.

Oh, that is true. I was looking at the one turned over which appears to me to have brown spores. It's difficult to tell these things from a single picture.
