How Often Do You Donk The Turn Here?
5-handed game and I'm in the BB with A [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]Q [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]. Folded to a decent player who opens in the cutoff. Button and SB fold and I decide to just call (usually 3-bet here). Anyway, flop comes 6 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]6 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]4 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]. I check, cutoff bets and I call. The turn is the 10 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] and I bet.

I can safely say I've never played a hand like this in my life. I will think about what benefits there are but I think you are giving up too much by just calling preflop 5 handed.

Re: How Often Do You Donk The Turn Here?
Hmmm. I like it. It's a bet that looks very honest. Very much like, "hey dude, i check-called with my overs and hit. sorry."
I don't think I play in games where this would work very much though since A-high is calling around 100% of the time.

Re: How Often Do You Donk The Turn Here?
Hi tpir,
The problem I have is what happens when he raises? Are we going to give this up every time? If so we really need to go back and start with a new plan as we are just asking to get the pot taken away from us. Also, if he calls with Ace high 100% of the time we are thrilled because we are value betting alot of the time. -DeathDonkey

I kind of like this if you know someone is fairly good. I really don't see how can read you for anything but a made hand or maybe a 4flush with some overs. If he is capable of folding I like this.

Re: How Often Do You Donk The Turn Here?
My standard line here in short-handed games against aggro opponents is to call pre-flop and check/raise this flop planning to go to the river. Cackle with glee when he tries to put you on a hand.

Re: How Often Do You Donk The Turn Here?
I do this a good bit also, but I feel like this line is becoming so "standard" when someone calls a raise out of the blinds and figures his opponent missed that it is being met with more turn raises by the hands you'd rather see fold. Just an observation...obv this doesn't happen all the time.
