Villain was a loose station. He is 83/12/.3 over 85 hands, butI did not pull the actual #'s until after the hand.

1. Is the turn a b/f?

2. Is this river ever a call?

[deflY]

1. yes
2. I don't think that this is often enough a bluff and the odds are horrible. There will be probably better spots to get money out of this donkey. I'd fold here.

[Leiviskae]

1. yes, u really have to bet b/f turn to know where u are, if u get called and he bets hard on river instant fold.
2. This is instant fold too, u should never call this. This donkey bet tells that he is fish and u get better spot to stack off him.

[Capone]

I fold pre-flop firstly.

Secondly I would bet this turn yes. If i got played back at I would fold. As played you cant call river thats a huge over-bet and theres only $6 in the pot you cant merit a call. This is a flush way to often.

Betting the turn makes playing this hand sooooooooo much easier.

[Kasane]

pf is fine. You're button and have donkeys ahead of you.

b/f turn.

fold riv.
