Is this an issue where the wider the raisers PFR % and the more aggressive the better the rope - a - dope strategy is?
Also for the sake of not being predictabile it seems to me that alternating what you do here is probably more important than choosing between the rope - a - dope and the "fast is the new slow play"
From the opponents perspective when would you call a river raise and when would a flop raise make you seriously consider laying down on this board.

Anecdotally I seem to get too much respect for having an ace from my opponnents at Party 2/4. (my PFR % is around 10%) I feel like I need to mix it up more when I am donk bet to keep them guessing. (Of course if a two flush is on the board I make them pay).

I am asking b/c I made a post and my analysis is ass backwards from yours. I read and respect your posts. I am still learning. (OK I am kissing up -whatever)
