AQ facing a turn donk bet
What are your thoughts on this? Is the fold standard? I'm also concerned about the flop play, so comments about any street are welcome.

[/ QUOTE ] My first thought was this is an easy fold. But.... What could he have that has you beaten seeing how he didn't raise preflop? Wouldn't he raise with k/q? He surely would have raised with a/q or a/k. He may be on a flush draw with a pair. 7 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]/8 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] or something like that. |

[/ QUOTE ] I like the fold- Many people won;t raise KQ utg, and will also limp with hands like KJ and K10. I think the donk bet represents a better hand than a draw. He probably thought you were raising light and didn't want to give you a free card. |

Re: AQ facing a turn donk bet
I'd fold because he's a TAG, but call down if he was a LAG.

Re: AQ facing a turn donk bet
He also donked the flop. He has QJs.
Raise! (the turn) |

Re: AQ facing a turn donk bet
Im new to this concept of what a donk bet is? Is there a old post somewhere that explains it?
I read that check-calling the flop and then betting the turn was a donk thing to do, but other than that I havent seen that term much until I joined 2+2. |

Re: AQ facing a turn donk bet
i think this fold is really bad. Call down. He could be betting alot of worse hands on the turn. Plus u have outs if he has a K.

Re: AQ facing a turn donk bet
If you assume that villian is going to call UTG and then call a raise UTG with no other callers with only a very decent hand, maybe KTs at worst, then I think you have to assume that his flop bet and turn bet after calling your flop raise mean that your hand is no good unless you improve.

Re: AQ facing a turn donk bet
How about a simple call down line?

Re: AQ facing a turn donk bet
I would fold here against those stats but I play bad.
I think this is a call down. |
