I was torn between calling and raising the turn. The donk bet made me think perhaps he was pulling a stop and go, but I opted to raise anyways. Then the call left me really confused as to where I was at. Also, bad check behind on the river? With all the cold calling the UTG had been doing, it struck me as a flush draw and he was either being way passive or going for a check raise. Either way, I didn't feel to good about my hand at this point.

I just call the turn here. On the river most likely value betting it. We're in position and its been checked to us.

The river is most definitely not being checked to us if we just call the turn.

And another thing, Donk bets confuse the hell out of me. How I play them varies in each situation.It depends on:- how strong my hand is relative to the current board- what the last card that fell was, and how likely it made the donk better two pair, etc.- his AF stats, and overall donkdom- if I want a free showdown or notBasically, I will do it with like AK when the board is K39 and a 7 or something comes on the turn, I will raise the donk bet each time.Donk bets piss me off, but I find that most of the time, I'm still ahead. HOWEVER, if the card that completes the flush fell, or the straight, etc, I probably call behind, not necessarily believing him, but not minding that he attempt to bluff the river as well, instead of just bet/folding the turn.Zach
