Default Re: I don\'t know how to deal with the donk turn

[ QUOTE ]
Somewhat common donk-situation has been throwing me.

Say I raise in mp with something like 99. Only bb calls. Flop is A83, rainbow. He checks, I bet, he calls. Turn is 6, completing the rainbow. He bets. Is the best line here simply calling down?

Suppose the turn was an overcard, like a J and villain donks. What would you do here?

My tendency has been to give the donker credit for a decent hand, but I wanted to check whether this makes sense, at least as a general rule.

The problem is trying to make this a general case. It isn't. We need to know how long you've been playing with this guy, and what kind of player he is.

If you or he just showed up at the table, I would raise for a free showdown. Since you're going to have position on this guy a lot, so you need to know what's going on when he does this.

If you've been there for a while, let us know when he normally does this. If it's often, start raising him. (insert RAWWISE! here)
