Default Help me playing against donkbettor

Villain 44/9/1.22

First hand. Didn't notice donkbetting tendencies so far. It's a calldown probably. Had a note on him that he called down T3 in an ATx unraised pot against another player.

Default Re: Help me playing against donkbettor

Hands like these are much more subjective than most. Basically, you should be drawing when you have odds or folding most of the time, but occasionally raising/bluffing/calling down. Being able to determine the proper times of when to do what has always been, to me, one of the most difficult things in poker.

Given the board, I usually raise the flop for a cheap showdown in the A9 hand. You may also consider doing something like that in the first hand. I think hand 3 is an easier fold.

Trying playing more HU, as it will help you to better determine when you're ahead in spots like these.
