Edit: Actually finished nearly 4 buyins down for the day though (3600 hands), feel so alone right now. :cry:

There's not enough info in this post to say if yuo made a good call or not. I mean, yeah you won, so it was agood call, but without background on how the guy has been playing, etc. You could have been just as easily a donkey.
NO?
Anyway, congrats on the hand!

Uhh, no, this was not a routine call down.

OoooooooooooooooooooooooOOOOOOO PAHTY POKAH!!!

I like the line vs. a donk, and the river doesn't make sense for him to actually have a hand for him to shove like that. People suck in BvB battles. Good play if you had the read he was a donk.

(Is that Party?)

Yeah, it's Party. That river just smelt sooo fishy that I was almost never folding, especially to a shove, that's just ridic.

It's certainly weird. I'll give you that.

You obviously made the right call. I was just saying, I'm not sure if you would find a lot of people here who would have called in that situation JUST going on what you posted. You had the advantage of seeing the donkey play for a while before the that hand.
Good call. So did you break the table?

Sry, didn't mean to be blunt before (welcome btw :D ). Yeah, villain left immediately along with a couple of others and nobody wanted to play 3 handed. I didn't actually have any history with villain at all and he could have been new to the table (I'm not sure), but I'm pretty sure he has a bluff way more than anything else there.

Today was no better unfortunately. 1800 more hands for $11 profit. Spent most of the day down or even across all tables except one. You'd think that's nearly impossible until it happens. Everyone managed to set mine me, constantly CRed and 4 bet and 2-5 outted on and some stupid tilt calls/shoves I made. Had to suck out a couple of times to be able to leave the computer (my overpair made quads against a set which was fun). Nice 5k+ breakeven stretch anyways.

Need to cheer myself up, CoD4 looks good to me.

DO you play many tables at once. I don't understand how people can do that. I mean I understand if your playing tight, you should rarely be a hand on two or more table at the same time. However, I've found that I invariably at some point get stuck in that situation. When I can't allow myself to give full attention to either hand, I lose at least one of them because of a stupid mistake I wouldn't have made otherwise.

It's not too hard to train yourself to increase the number of tables you play. The main consideration is whether it increases your hourly winrate to add another table. At some point, adding just one more table will become a losing proposition, and finding that point allows you to maximize your hourly rate. However, in cash games that number tends to be lower due to the increased complexity of playing deep-stacked.
