Re: 25NL AK misses flop and gets mini donked
I like the flop play - as per Mike Kelleys Pooh Bah.
Another line is just to call, playing small ball. You may well be ahead or have 6 outs with position and odds. Turn gets tricky, there is more in the pot than there is in his stack so its shove/fold time. Folding seems nitty but he needs to have KJ, KT or some other crap a lot of the time here. His line suggests something stronger like a set or KQ, playing slow on the dry flop then getting frisky when draws appear. We do have one read... he is a NL25 mid-stacker, very few of these are decent. That probably sucks me into a shove, in the heat of battle I cant fold situations like these even if maybe I should. |

[censored] it, call me a nit but the more I think about it the more I think a fold on the turn is actually ok here.

Re: 25NL AK misses flop and gets mini donked
Depends on villain, if they do that mini donk crap I tend to do what you did when I'm in position. When they call I think your in trouble. That K hitting the turn either helped you a lot or is going to get you into a jam.
What did you think he had when he goes from a 25% of pot flop bet to a 80+% of pot bet on the turn? Edit: looking at stack sizes, I think you should play small ball as was suggested above. I didn't notice villains half stack originally. |

Re: 25NL AK misses flop and gets mini donked
You've shown strength on the flop, he called and he's now bet 5/6 of the pot. I think top pair is no good.
I agree with Sounded that it's fold or shove and I go for folding. CaptVimes, what's your line on the river if a blank comes off and he goes all in? |

Re: 25NL AK misses flop and gets mini donked
I don't like the flop raise that much if you don't plan on getting it AI on if you spike a pair on the turn. You are committing too many chips with not many outs. Sure, his flop bet is small and will tend to indicate a weak hand, but you don't have much behind to really scare him off of a hand. I think a call-bluff is a much better play than raising the flop.
As it is you can probably fold this turn. |

He could have a set here, a PP, or something retarded like K4/K8. I think this is a fold, but I hate it.

Re: 25NL AK misses flop and gets mini donked
I had to learn the hard way that strong bets, even those coming from bad players, actualy mean strong hands most of the time. I smell KQ here.
In practice, oh well. In theory, I say fold it. |
