Common spot: Donked into when flush rivers

No reads Dunno why I bet so small, but even if I'd 2/3 it on every street, this is a flush like everytime I call, right?

me too, but it feels like I always pay off a flush when the action is like this I don't know anything about him at all.

I call because IMO a big hand i think bets much lighter.

i can't figure out what villain could possibly have

this would be a great board to block-bet OOP for him (with the intention of folding to a raise) but usually those bets are more like 1/2 pot. If he's good he could be taking this line with the intention of folding to a shove. but maybe that's getting too complicated.

Just seems like you are beating bluffs in this spot and nothing else.
