Re: I don\'t know how to deal with the donk turn
[ QUOTE ]
Hey, I think I may actually have learned something here. Raising the donk seems pretty safe. If I'm 3-bet, I can readily fold to an unknown, and otherwise, I may well get a free card. I like it. [/ QUOTE ] The problem with this in my experience is that guys who like to donk also like to donk the next round even if they are raised. I am more worried about him donking the river again than I am about him 3-betting the turn. It is an easy fold to a 3-bet on the turn, but some guys can repeatedly donk with some crazy stuff.

Cartman [/ QUOTE ] This is a good point. Therefore, you should only be raising the turn if you are prepared to fold to a 3 bet as well as a river donk. If your opponent is capable of bluffing either as a turn 3 bet or river donk then you should be calling down instead of raising. Additionally, if you know your opponent to not be the type to bluff 3 bet/donk, maybe you should just be folding the turn in the first place. In other words, raising the turn is tempting, but i think it is the correct play least often. |

Re: I don\'t know how to deal with the donk turn
For all those who claim that they have see a fish donk the turn, you raise and then donk the river and you call and win, find an example. I looked through some hands and can't find one. Not tyring to be a dick, just cna't find an example of a donk bet on a drawless board when they donk the river and you still win.

Maybe he was scared you'd check behind on the river.

This hand is a different situation, as the villain 3-bet pf and led the flop.

The worst guy I have ever seen about this has probably won more total $ from me than any other player though. What a game. Cartman |

Re: I don\'t know how to deal with the donk turn
This discussion really is making me want to donk more, particularly against TAGs, seeing how confusing the donk-bet can be.

Re: I don\'t know how to deal with the donk turn
That's been my experience, too. I've noticed that they donk the flop, donk the turn, and check call river often.
I think this bet on the turn usually signifies a hand. |
