Default Re: What?

This is a pretty weird position to be in. I've trolled through my database to find something similar but I couldn't pick anything which quite matches this scenario on the flop. As was mentioned earlier in the thread, this is generally the classic check-raise position if you're beat. Overcard on the flop and then the donk bets tend to come out. Ok my database is admittedly quite small but my question to those with large samples, is (a) is this a common situation i.e Top top pair good kicker gets donked into? and (b) if not, a fold here should be fine as it could not possibly be a significant leak (if a leak at all). SO not unhappy with a fold here given that it seems (to me anyway) to be an uncommon combination of events (pot-size donk bet on an ace-high flop with no reads). I like the fold here - I don't do it often enough but I like it.
