Default Re: He donked the Axx flop I probably hit

I also go back and forth here against unknowns. If I raise I normally do it on the flop and if they lead the turn again dump it. I am probably giving up something against an unknown because you do encounter an idiot with 55 or J9 here ocasionally. It just sucks so hard to raise the turn and get lead into again on the river that I try to avoid it against a total unknown, unless I'm going to welcome that river lead.

People who lead into me on every street make me want to kill things.

I don't like the turn raise, what's the point?

get information? that can be expensive information
make him pay to draw? well, if you could be sure he would call with 5 or 6 outs, then sure, but if he has 5 or 6 outs only anyways in this pot his equity is pretty small, why not induce another bluff on the river and avoid the 3 bet when you are crushed?

the turn is a call,
the river you want 1 bet to go in. if he is good enough to c/r on the river here with an ace you need another table unless the rest of it is bad.

Yes, listen to stox. Call down, bet river if checked to.
