Yes it is, which is why I stated how many hands and that I had no real reads.

This is no donkbet, this is a straight-up stop-and-go.

Not like it matters, I'm raising his punk ass. Most people would checkraise a flush, and if he does not even know what a checkraise is... you got outs.

maybe you should be asking the same question as the original poster. Youre giving these donkeys way to much credit, this is an extremely easy raise

Why? If he's bluffing, and we raise, he'll call and check/fold the river (or even fold flat out on the turn). If he's actually got the flush, we do have a few outs and would love to see the river. If we raise, he'll 3-bet us, and we won't like that at all.

On the other hand, if he's bluffing and we call, he'll almost surely bet again on the river. We win the same amount from him when we're ahead and lose less when we're behind. And, should we fill up, we might even get an extra bet out of him when he has the flush and we raise the river. In fact, the more I think about it, the more I like calling down.

sorry my post didnt have much content. i define a gaybet as a bet where you didnt have priority on the last street. I am just a little confused but not completely as to when this is the right or wrong play.

Very read dependant. With some players, it is a turbo raise. With others a turbo muck or a crying call.

Looks like a flush to me when UTG bets the two flush flop, and then leads out the turn into the flop raiser. I generally call down from here unless I fill up.
