i like it. you can easily fold to a river raise. the number of ace high hands he has that would check behind you here and that will call your donk bet would seem to make it worth a try. it is hard for me to see an opponent with those stats bluff raising the river so you won't be folding any hands to a raise that would be winners.

At first glance, I didn't like the play because of villain's low (11) PFR. Realizing it was a HU blind match, I like it much more.

Do you have any additional info about his blind tendencies?

OK, then we can assume he'll 3-bet much lighter in a blind battle which means you did fine.

This looks perfect unless you know he is a known 3 barrel bluffer.

You need to try and take this one down when the K pairs. Your opponent is running 12 outs to pass now.
