So the last few sessions I had been playing well. Had been making a minor comeback of sorts, playing more shorter sessions and booking wins and cutting losses more. Was up around 6kish last few days and felt like things were turning around.

But alas.. the Poker Cooler Gods returned today and smacked me around.

Few hands from today. First couple I'm interested in suggestions, last several are just cooler central.

Hand 1:
-what's the best turn play?
-I decided on the river that the only hand he'd really shove with here for value was Kd or maybe Qd. Also after flop call, I decided that he couldn't have either the Kd or Qd unless he had KdXd or QdXd (so flush over flush on turn anyhow).
-So I ended up calling river, good/bad?
