Default 2/4 NL AA vs unknown turn donk bet

I haven't played that many hands with the villain. I have seen him limp/call a raise and then fold to a continuation bet a couple times. He seems to be pretty passive preflop but I haven't seen him play much after the flop. If you had to assume one way or another, are you going to suppose that a party 2/4 NL player is passive or aggressive postflop?

I know like half of you are doing to say push the turn--if so would you mind explaining yourself?

I would call. You just sucked out on KQ and you're getting great odds.

Its either an idiot playing a flush or KQ. I'm leaning more towards the flush, but I call.

If I have no significant reads, but I see a player limping preflop too much, I will typically assume they are more on the passive side postflop as well, until they give me a reason to change my mind. The same thing applies when I see a player always coming in for a raise.

That said, I agree with kitaristi that this is a call, for the same basic reasons he said.

I play it the same way and insta-call.

I'm curious how people would play this hand if the turn was a 5[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]. Would anyone raise this river without the flush on the board?

Yeah I am pretty curious about the turn as well. I also think the river card makes calling OK. How about a non-pairing blank?

what if u minraise the turn? if hes generally passive theres a good chance u can get cheaply to showdown that way (vs calling halfpots here and on the river) and if he comes over the top u have an easy fold
