Terrible night, I've won 4 showdowns in the last 250 hands according to PT, and am down 80BB. Take a look at this hand, I was already pretty steaming at the time, was I out of control here or do you usually win in this spot?

The flop play is debateable at least. You are in a pretty bad spot on the flop and I can understand why people would fold or raise or even call. The river cap is pretty wreckless IMO.

He's trying to check-raise you on the turn, and while I don't mind raising the river the first time, your cap is uglier than that region behind my balls but in front of my anus.

Does anyone fold the 89s pre-flop?

In early position yes.
In middle position yes.
In late position in an unraised pot nope.
