Donk Against Thinking Player?
Please comment on turn play. Reads - villain is slighltly LPA 24 VPIP or so, 5% PFR, but AF > 1 post flop (hence cold calls more than he should). Seems to be a thinking player. Table is generally tight (Eurobet without the Party base)
On the flop, I think villain is equally likely to have a Q and a flushdraw/bluff since he is somewhat of a thinking player that is aggressive post flop. I decided to donk the turn to prevent a free card, fold to a raise. Thoughts? He could reasonably fold the flush draw since hes somewhat thinking post flop. I think the only problem is if he calls, he could still be drawing or have a weak Q. What to do on the river then? Party Poker 2/4 Hold'em (10 handed) converter Preflop: Hero is UTG with T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], T[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]. <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises</font>, <font color="#666666">4 folds</font>, MP3 calls, <font color="#666666">3 folds</font>, BB calls.

Re: Donk Against Thinking Player?
I like the play so far.
I fold the turn to a raise. If I make it to the river, I check/fold. Maybe this is too weak, but I always get myself into trouble with TT. |

Re: Donk Against Thinking Player?
The play is ok, but what makes it tough is that villain cc preflop. Only seeing 24% makes his cc range fairly small. Looking at AQ, KQs, and PP. Then maybe some hands like AJs and A10s.
You are ahead of many of these hands, many of which are on draws. B/F the turn. Then see what comes on the river. Bet a non club A or K. c/c all other non clubs. probably c/f a club. |

[/ QUOTE ] I don't think Villain will bluff the river since we bet the turn. If you bet/fold you lose an extra bet than if you check/fold. And if he calls your bet you're probably beat, if we assume he's a thinking player. |

Re: Donk Against Thinking Player?

Re: Donk Against Thinking Player?
This is probably fine if you fold to the raise. But the problem here is you give up your outs if behind. I'd rather check/call the turn and bet the river.
