NL50: AQ in SB. I try donking for a change
Unknown Soldier asked in 23act's well about thoughts on donking flop/turn/river and he replied it was useful for getting value out of good but not monster hands, abusing the fact that people will call lighter than they will bet on certain boards.
Since I very rarely donk, I'd thought this might be a good spot to try something new. No reads on villain, I've been at table less than 2 orbits. I'm usually 3-betting pre, but given I had no reads and he was UTG, I thought I'd just call here. Pretty nice flop, and a safe turn unless he had T9 (unlikely), so I fire again on the turn. As I'm an unknown to him, I don't think he would float me on the flop and raise turn with any hand I beat, so I was planning on folding to turn raise. Given he just called turn, and river didn't really change anything, I fired again. I felt completely unsure about this hand, but I think it was mostly beacuse opponent was unknown so I wasn't sure if he was slowplaying a monster, not being a unbeliever with 99/TT, or a complete donk with A5o.
