Re: NL400: Huge draw gets there vs fish, but now I\'m scared
He just min reraised you preflop then cbet on an AQJ board meaning that the donk almost always has a strong hand, or at least something he thinks is good enough to call a raise with. On the flop I check it since a raise is rarely getting a fold and often times you aren't ahead by much.
On the river you have to value bet. The guy is terrible and could have lots of hands other than a boat that he will still pay you off with. For all that you know he will call with KK, AT, A2, KQ, etc because hes too bad to fold them. Who knows what the moron will pay you off with. Yes sometimes you will be betting into a slowplayed boat but probably not nearly often enough to turn a value bet -EV.
