Could we get a worse river than that? I guess 9[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]... I like the turn bet, it's tough on the river though. I'm leaning towards check/call... villain is loose enough to call from the cutoff with 56...89, all of which are beating you. But this could also be a missed flush. And I think it is more likely to be missed flush than straight/set/boat. Getting 3-1. I make the crying call.

are you folding to a turn raise i guess? if so i like it.
i check/fold the river though.

is bet/fold like 60 okay though ? i dont normally do it though but curious how good/bad it is.

Re: 200NL- QQ OOP vs. Aggro Donk
 

I usually just CRAI on the turn versus somebody aggro. His flop calling range doesn't normally include 2-pair or sets as I would expect a raise from those on drawy boards. So, the majority of his hands are drawing hands and CRAI makes those hands pay. You just have to be willing to feel like a fool when he flips A8 on occasion.

aggro donk, I think I call this river.we need to be good 36.5% here.

Re: 200NL- QQ OOP vs. Aggro Donk
 

Almost everything got there on the river. Sometimes I call sometimes I fold, the majority of time you are beat here.

Very interesting hand.

I think you can rule out a set or an 8 after the flatcall on such a draw-heavy flop..

Id say theres a nice chance hes running a very fat draw on the turn, and you could have bet something in the 40-50 range to give you a little more info:

1. A bigger turn bet makes him pay more to chase a fat straight/flush draw like Ah6h
2. A bigger turn bet weeds out a naked flush draw unless he's a real donk.

The turn bet of only 32 puts you in a difficult decision on this river. Open-ended Flushdraw seems very likely, but he could also have Air, missing the naked flush draw.

I put him on around 65% Xh6h,6x7x,...etc and 35% air.


I edited this post because I missed the part about him being an aggro donk...I think 67 is more viable now, as well as some other weak drawing hands... Very tough call, but I think you have to make it.

Re: 200NL- QQ OOP vs. Aggro Donk
 

I think the turn is the most interesting part of the hand. I still don't know whether check/calling, check/pushing, or just betting around $35 is the correct play.

The more I think about it the more I favor a check/push.

River looks like a fold.

c/ring turn seems to be teh nuts... I think I call river .. not enough info to fold
