Re: Reviewed hand, still confused with ATs
Pre-flop is completely standard, I agree.
I like raising that flop, too. You're not raising for equity, you're raising for a free card on the turn, so if you miss your straight, you can check it through to see another card on the river.
Turn is obvious, jam it up.
River, at this level, you have to just call that donkbet. Very often, players will donkbet as soon as they make a hand. SB called 2 cold on the flop, and he wakes up when the third heart hits on a board with an easy straight...that's a huge problem. Just call, and hope he hit 2 pair or a set, or was "slowplaying" a 10.
But yeah, I think your flop play was fine. Free card plays are good stuff. Just play more hands, I bet ATs and KQo will even out for you over time.
