I'd put him on a draw because he was so passive. River was a brick and i would let him bluff at it. Aggressive factor was infinite. So that's why i made the call. He could do this with any 2

I need your help how to deal with tilt. All the profit i made today is gone, plus some more. I'm currently down about 10$ which is fine. It's not alot, and it could be worse. In the course of 100 hands i lost everything back, and then some. So what is the best way to go here?

i've managed to recover quite a bit

If i could just keep going at this pace, then i will turn a nice profit over 100K hands i shouldn't give up!

I guess the cards went my way, and i played my A-game the whole way through. Certainly glad that i'm in the black again Let's not tilt anymore

I don't follow this? Either he's aggressive or he's passive.

If he's passive then it's unlikely that he would lead into you for two streets with a draw, and isn't likely to bluff the river.

If he's aggressive, even against any two cards you're very rarely good with K high by the river, I think you need at least a pair (or at the very least an ace!) to call this river bet vs a maniac, but you can work this out mathematically I'm sure

Also his stats seem pretty solid..?

I don't follow. I was not the one with K high. Also, the sample is pretty smal, and the previous couple of hands He was spewing like crazy. So i figured my pair was good.

He was pretty aggro the whole session. But calling on the flop and the turn was pretty passive to me. I decided to check and let him bluff the river. I figured my pair was good because of his plays earlier this session. I rarely call the river with this hand though
