The DonkBet

[PokerBob]

Bellagio 15/30. pf cold-caller is decent playing lady form Colorado. Maybe a tad weak-tight. She knows I am good. Donk here is a jackass. cold-calls any 2 soooted. Likes to make donk bets. Makes one here.

Donk limps UTG. I am UTG+1 with A [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]K [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] and I raise it. Solid lady next to me cold-calls. One other jackass calls. Donk calls.

4 to the flop for 8.76SB.

Donk checks, I bet, lady raises, jackass folds, donk cold-calls, I 3-bet, lady calls, donk calls.

Donk bets, I.......

I'll bite.

Options

1) Fold. Yuk, if he's a jackass, he could have two cards. Scary stuff. [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img] Not folding...

2) Call. You figure you have both of them beat, but don't want to stop the action... (?) Mebe...

3) Raise. I like raising, because you might get the decent lady to fold a better hand than yours ("tad weak-tight") and the jackass might have anything.

If I'm raising, I think I'm folding to a 3-bet on the turn from anyone.

I don't think you're moving the lady off too many hands better than yours here...is she solding aces up or a set every time that 3rd flush hits?

[thejameser]

have to try to get HU with the donk; only way is to try a raise. with AA she likely caps the flop, maybe you can represent the flush and get her to fold by popping it. this seems to put you in the best position to win. you did mention donk likes to play suited though, so that is a concern, but kind of a weak/tight one. i wouldnt doubt she has AK herself, and assuming no flush out there, getting her to fold would be super play.

Makes sense. Thanks for it.

FYP?

ps - are we at all worried about another club?

Exactly correct. I think I'm borrowing concepts that apply more to other hands and trying to apply them here.

yeah, I think we are, but I can't see raising, because we may already be behind lady. This question makes the play much less clear though.
