Re: folding winning hand is way more frustrating than a bad beat
Calling down against two opponents is actually better for you if you think you might be beat. I think that worrying about the coldcaller is silly after the turn goes check-bet-CALL. If he did have some kind of a hand, he would have raised the turn with it. So once the coldcaller just calls the turn all you need to worry about the PFR. Since you got some dude calling all the way who is drawing thin against you, it makes more sense calling down against 2 players then just one. The flop coldcaller is effectively subsidizing your call down so you need to show down the winning hand less often to make it profitable. It gets much trickier if the coldcaller has a lot of outs against you, but in this case he probably has 3 outs or less so we don't really need to make him pay to draw against us.
