Default 83s, standard?

I do this often enough that I'd like to make sure I'm makign the correct plays. Please take a peak at the line leading up to the river.

FWIW, the guy that donk-bets the turn is bluffing A LOT.

I think the guy betting the flop is TAA.

Perfect, imho.
Too much equity to fold the flop and we sure can't fold the turn, so i like it.

Holy [censored]! I'm SO glad that the river in this hand was easy to play!!

I'm pretty tired for some reason, and I just realized (I'm not sure I would have caught this in the hand) that an 8 is no longer good for me on the river.

A three will sometimes win, but an 8 will very seldom (never?) win.

Thanks guys.

--Dave.

Just noticed that the board paired...
You still have your outs to make your call.

Play it the same, and going nuts on the donk better if we hit a 3 or the flush... maybe less nuts if we hit the flush than if we hit bottom boat. If that makes sense.

The flopcall is correct.
You get 7 to 1 for a ~6outer (twopair draw + BDFD, need 1 to 6.8).

You pick up a flushdraw on turn, but it's the only draw left for you IMO since the board paired.
It counterfeits your 2nd pair if you catch an eight and gives everyone with a 7 a better fullhouse when you hit a trey.

But you still get the odds to draw of course.
