here's a cooler hand that bit into my winnings a bit toward the end of my session. its a miracle i dont win at 30ptbb/100 the way this shit goes down...so does anybody fold to this river bet? anyone keep pushing on the turn? anyone else frustrated that the board didnt pair without giving jackhole a boat?

opponent is at like 45vpip - 5pfr - 1.5af

what does potting the flop do? other than losing me an extra 50 cents here, and looking conspicuously different than all my other C-bets?

Played it perfect. Nothing to do. Don't tilt, be happy. In the long run those donks will fill your pockets.
