Set the hand converter to FTR format.

I probably call this river all day, but get stacked by Axd or a boat.

I am definitely calling that river. If he has it then I pay him off. I can't see getting away from this.
Stakes: Playing $0.10/$0.25 NL

I certainly wouldn't have the discipline to lay this down.
Poker is easy, it's winning at poker that's hard.

I probably fold pre-flop. The way it was played it really looks like he is slowplaying a monster, but I probably end up calling on the river in this spot. You saying he has been aggressive and raising people off pots wouldnt make me any more confident when he calls a re-raise out of postion on the flop then just calls a big bet on the turn. Looks like a big trap to me, he limped from SB so he could have something as weird as 6 5.

I think this hand as played would be tough to get away from, the limp preflop I dont hate, as long as you are confident postflop. Anyways there are two things I dont really like, the flop and the turn. On the flop BB leads for a PSB and you minraise, the BB folds but SB check/called. On the turn he checked again and then you overbet the pot. I think you should be beting here, but not for more than the pot, 2/3-3/4 should be fine. The river its going to be tough to lay down, and Id say you are ahead more often than not.
