More poker FTW

Was feeling tired after my 2/4 session but wanted to get some more hands in so I mined some tables on FTP. While waiting I read a uplifting book, took a walk and made some tea. the tables were juicy as always and I played some solid poker. I made one debatable stack off where I essentially could put villain on 2 specific hands that beat me and he had one of them. Maybe I should fold the flop but its debatable I guess due to history. Villain was 23/16/3 and i had just crai in a 3bet pot where he folded. i sensed frustration and though he very well could be on a steal. maybe i over did it here.

I loved my play in this hand but I am doubtful I folded out better. Its possible. I mean really can he call with an over pair here? Villain is 21/19/4, only bluffs should bet the turn imo.

Overall the results for the session were good as I won a flip with my AK vs QQ AI pre and had a few donks decide to stack off as well. Today was my biggest day monetarily poker wise I believe but I am not caring to much. I just want to continue to play my A-game at all times and get in as many hands as I can each day. I know the results will be there.

I think the AT hand is fine. With the 8Ts I think that hand is completly villian dependant though and don't hate you're line as you are getting better hands to fold, but there are many different ways I'd play that based on opponent.
