Villain is a reg, he's sLAG preflop but pretty standard taggy style postflop.

i think you can call, it didnt feel like a call but giving him a range it seems v reasonable.


Hand 0: 43.975% 41.31% 02.67% 19805701 1277972.50 { JdTd }
Hand 1: 56.025% 53.36% 02.67% 25582866 1277972.50 { 44, AhJh, AhTh, KhJh, KTs, JhTh, Jh9h, Th9h, 9h8h, 8h7h, 7h6h, 6h5h, KTo }

i think i like the call, especially if you will be playing with the same villain regularly.

sadly though i think getting to the turn in that fashion you technically "should" call, which then makes us rescind to the flop, and the real question should be 'should we call the donk,' and we need to label a donk range for that to be answered. also, is pushing the flop better? and, if calling only to fold a blank is better, the real play is folding the flop.

i guess im SOMEWHAT confused because villain "should" be just checkpushing QJ/44/anything good that is "made" and his draws. oh well!
