What hands that you have beat can call a river reraise? Looks to me like a set, Ak, or a total bluff. Maybe a push gets him off AK, but I doubt it.

Call and lose to 66.

Edit: Actually, given Lyric's image and the way the hand played, I'd expect Twin to push with a boat. His river bet looks like another King attemping to get value from Lyric.

I'm not sure what to do, though. The same logic about Lyric's image can be applied for calling, as well, cause Twin will fold KQ to a reraise. I still like a call better, but I think we're winning here a lot.

What do you think about RR preflop or about donking the flop?

I seriously doubt he "slowplayed" a weaker K on the flop, so either he has trips beat or missed a draw and not calling regardless. No value in raising.

Both are good, OP's line is fine too. I usually re-raise this preflop when the CO open-raises - especially vs. twin who will likely try to take the pot away from you if the flop comes A-hi.
