So, with this guy pretty much just calling down the coming out of the woodwork on the river, I probably shouldn't have capped. Seemed like a real long-shot that I was behind to a flush, though =/

yeah, the only time you're allowed to cap the river here is you can beat the flush or the straight. IE you need to have a Full house.
If it were the runner-runner flush and the 5 didn't also complete the Open Ended straight, I can imagine getting to 3 bets before the alarms are going off in my head, but comeon, the only BETTER card to come off on the river would be the 8s

The older I get, the more I start wondering; Just what in the hell is going on here?

I may cap the river, although it's probably close I probably call the river 3-bet and palmface

Yeah, the passive check-calling followed by a river donk when two draws complete. If you don't beat at least one of those draws you should make the crying call. If you have a read of him as anything at all tricky you might raise, but otherwise you are beaten here.

I raise-call the river. Most villains will check-raise that river if they hit their draw.

Some days it feels like I've been standing forever, waiting for the bank teller to return so I can cash in all these Sklansky Bucks.
