Comm 40: I donk twice and get raised twice

[emerson]

[ QUOTE ]
Good game tonight, I'm running well and have a solid image.

Random weird Middle Eastern regular raises in EP and is cold-called by button. Button is the early 30-something brown-haired white chick who's 8 months pregnant and is a bit of a table coach; she's stuck a lot tonight but isn't spewing. I'm in the BB and elect to call with AKo. (Eh?)

Flop: KJ4r

I bet, PFR folds, button raises. I call.

Turn: 2

I bet. Button says, in a sincere and quiet tone, "you have two pair?" and raises.

My play?

Your flop play is inconsistent with just calling preflop. When you just call here in the big blind you should either have in mind check raising the flop, or donk/3bet.

If you had 3 bet preflop and lead flop, perhaps you would not 3 bet if raised on the flop. You'd have more information about the strength of your opponents hand. Because you did not 3 bet the flop here, your opponent does not think that you flopped two pair, a set, or have AK. She is looking puzzled wondering how the turn may have helped you. And if it did, you probably would have gone for a check raise on the turn. Your play just looks illogical from your opponent's point of view. She can't put you on a hand. She has something decent so she raised.
