I hate these f\'ing donkbets
 

As often as I see them they still confuse the hell out of me. Villan was an absolute moron. Over almost 100 hands he's about an 80/10, passive, sees most rivers and less often showdowns.

Do I raise his fishy ass? I'm not folding to a 3-bet from this player. That said, I don't think he'd 3-bet too many hands that beat me. Maybe I should raise and fold to a reraise. I hate these goddammned bets.

Raising can't be right....

Re: I hate these f\'ing donkbets
 

they are annoying, but your play is here is pretty obvious to me...you just call...

Re: I hate these f\'ing donkbets
 

I've seen this a lot lately on the river where villain made a draw on the turn and don't want the river to be checked through; why they didn't check/raise at some point is beyond. Sometimes they are a set. It has been AA. I've just been calling unless I have a solid read.

Seriously, what is up with the dynamics of the game right now? I've seen more goofy shi[/i]t in the past week than I have in the previous months of my short poker career.

I call the river donkbet, especially from a player like this one who could have literally any 2 at this point in the hand (you can't rule out something like 93 or 33). Against a slightly more predictable opponent I could raise &amp; fold to a 3-bet.

i second.

Re: I hate these f\'ing donkbets
 

I have one regular opponent who used to give me fits with her donkbets on weird turn &amp; river cards, until I figured out that only meant she'd paired that card, not 2 pair or anything. She'd c/r with that.

God I love predictable, loose players. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

FMP. Two hours of sleep and a day of mathematics does not make for clear-headed thinking. Multi-tabling tonight would be a horrible idea.

Theory of Poker, pg 204, last postion play after your opponent has bet (Chap 21, heads up on the end) fwiw

Looks like the WA/WB line, except I dont think he's WA/WB.
