Default third donk\'s the charm - right ?

Villain is unknown.

Poker Room skin
Limit Holdem Ring game
Limit: $0.50/$1
10 players
Converter

Pre-flop: (10 players) Hero is MP2 with K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] T[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]
UTG folds, UTG+1 calls, 2 folds, Hero calls, MP3 folds, CO calls, Button calls, SB calls, BB checks.

I think i just called this because i didn't know the villain. Do you raise against 1 unknown limper ?

Flop: K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 2[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] T[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (6SB, 6 players)
<font color="#cc0000">SB bets</font>, BB folds, UTG+1 calls, <font color="#cc0000">Hero raises</font>, 2 folds, SB calls, UTG+1 calls.

Turn: 5[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (6BB, 3 players)
SB checks, <font color="#cc0000">UTG+1 bets</font>, <font color="#cc0000">Hero raises</font>, SB folds, UTG+1 calls.

River: Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] (10BB, 2 players)
<font color="#cc0000">UTG+1 bets</font>, Hero...

Smells fishy - just call ?

We might be ahead here half the time or better but in order to raise I think we have to be ahead 70%+ of the time (to account for the times we have to call a 3 bet) So I just call.

I'm ok with preflop given the limper and your relative position. If the guys acting after you were tight, raising is probably good. I just call the river. It's hard to put UTG+1 on a straight after his turn bet but you've been representing a strong hand and he's still betting. I expect this is a weaker 2 pair.

*grunch*

i dont think he has set cus he donks turn
i really dont see big thread of raising river (unless player is very tricky)
his donk turn says "i have good hand but not so good to make 3bet" and i dont wanna give free card

pls pm what villian has [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

I think a raise is fine too. I think we can remove a set from villain's holdings. If he hit a flop set, he would raise right then and there (or at least after your raise!), or instinctively go for a turn check/raise with nice position on you.

Considering his passive action on the flop followed by his weird turn donk, there's really not much I think beats you that acts like this. A set does the above and a straight draw doesn't donk the turn. I'm assuming a weaker two pair a lot of the time here, but your opponent probably didn't even play THAT right.

I just call the river bet. The donk of the turn 5 doesn't make a lot of sense since it doesn't really fit any reasonable hand other than K5 or 55. I wouldn't think he has a set that often, but it seems likely enough to me that I don't want to raise and call a 3-bet.

Villain limps QQ preflop?

I'm going to doubt it, but make sure you note it if he actually has this!
