lots of semibluff draws for him to get frisky with, plus dead money, plus I've just cracked slowplayed aces/kings. I'm ahead of everything except the three sets. Good enough to die on the hill...

I pokerstoved the hand afterward - villain was a 50.909% to 49.091% favorite. As close to a coinflip as you can get, and I flopped top two pair!
As I "instant messaged" to my friend after the hand - you study, you work on your game, you practice, you review hands, you read, you get tutoring, you discuss hands with your friends, you do everything you can to be a good player. Then you flop a big hand that's ahead of nearly everything, against a loose meathead with a wide range, and you still end up flipping a friggin coin for $32.
Edit: By the way, say you call a raise with a suited 2 gapper like 7
