Value bet hell

Most good players love making value bets, but very few love calling them. Last night I found myself in value bet hell. Repeatedly, opponents made value bets on the river when I had hands which were good enough to call with. Had they made larger bets, I could have folded, but their bets were sized so that I had the right price to call. My stack descended rapidly. The hand I remember the best is one where an opponent hit trip aces on the flop, and bet them small all the way down the line.
