As played, who knows? haha. I more than likely let it go. I'm betting the flop though. Why give a free card if everyone checks behind?

I'd lead the flop and check the turn. As played I'd probably fold the river. The only hand we beat is KJ

Ain't no fun when the rabbit's got the gun. OK lame, but pretty easy fold here with your standard garden variety donkey tool box.

The way it's played here, if you have a range of hands for the donkey you can easily let this go here.
Regards,
Carl

leading the flop will do nothing but get everything we beat to fold and everything we r well ahead of to call.

as played i think u have to fold. this looks like a situation where if we call we r praying he has AK. i dont see him making this play with n e thing worse except a comeplete bluff but that seems pretty unlikely in this situation. (was he maniacly aggrssive post flop or sumtin?)

Why no flop bet? And do you see villain doing this with K6-KJ? I don't see many donks pulling off 100% bluffs either. I'm feeling a must-fold.

Ignoring the board for a second, Hero's line looks like:

"I have a decent hand, so I raise."
"Oops, I missed. Better check."
"What? Nobody else hit? This pot is mine for the taking."
"Shucks, guess my hand isn't so good after all, I check."

So, I think a lot of people who bluff will bluff at that line because it's often so hard to call.

On the other hand, if you're going to interpret hero's line like that, you have to figure that Hero most likely has a medium-high pair or a big Ace. AK and AQ both hit.

I don't know what "TOTAL donk" means, but I could easily see someone playing either boat this way.

Bleh. Your line is a decent one to bluff at, which makes me lean towards call, but I think that villain could easily have you beat. Bleh. I fold. Screw you and your neverending stream of boats, Mr. BB.
