Default Re: check/call check/call check/raise the river

[ QUOTE ]

It also means you are playing against a slightly smarter fish, pulling the river check raise, because usually the check/caller chaser all of a sudden bets out -- the donk bet, I believe, when they do hit. Like they are afraid all of a sudden you aren't going to bet your hand like you have been doing on every other street, and might check it down, and they just HAVE to get that bet in.

How often do you pay off the suck out fish?

Without a read it's usually best to fold here. You will very seldom see a bluff, especially assuming that by "fish" you mean "loose-passive". Also, I think donk bet fish are right on par with c/r fish. A lot of players will check that river through, and a donk bet would be a good idea against many other players. I would say that donk bet fish tend to be more weak and c/r fish are slightly more aggressive types.
