OK, my brain hurts from thinking through this post. But, I've finally decided that I'm setting a rule for myself that I vow to never violate. Here's my new rule:

If I choose to raise the river for value against a single donk betting opponent, I will never fold for one additional bet no matter how grim it looks if I am getting better than 8 to 1.

There, I said it. My new rule doesn't stop me from attempting razor thin value raises, nor does it stop me from making the occasional big laydown. It does prevent me from attempting both all in the same hand. I'm just not sophisticated enough to do that, and will likely outguess myself at some point in the future. Flame away, but I feel better.
