Default Is there a standard line for this junk?

I think that a lot of the time he's just a donk betting top pair (or some pocket pair that he thinks is good, because don't you know all PFRs are AK?). At any rate, I like the way you played it...if you're good on the river he'll probably fold to another raise, and if you're not there's no use putting more bets into the pot.

At this point my standard is to call the raise and showdown as cheaply as possible.

I folded an overpair of Kings the other night to a raise on the turn only to find out that I had the better hand. Believe me, that sucked.

I might CONSIDER folding if the raiser was an incredibly passive player. But you have no read. And if there were several other players still in the hand. Which is not the case here.

Call.

To call what raise? Hero is raising. And folding is bad. I raise that turn like always, and I occasionally raise the river against players who consistently stop and go every street with a pair.
