Default Re: Anyone Push Here - Commerce 10/20

If he really is donkish then you can either push or just smooth call then lead at the turn. The first play is safer since you are less likely to get outdrawn (or at least you've charged him the max to do it). The second play I like because donks will still chase draws with one card to come, and even better, once they commit a fair amount of chips to something like second pair or top pair weak kicker, they really have trouble getting away. While this could be seen as an argument for allin on the flop, for some reason they are more likely to see the lead the turn play as you trying to take the pot away and will call with some weird stuff.

Both of these plays assume you have about 10K in your pocket for rebuys because you don't want to bust out before you get the donks money. If you are short-rolled, it's a trickier proposition because there may be much higher EV situations in the future which you will miss out on if you don't rebuy (like tournament strategy).
