I would call and re-eval the turn

[Genz]

Even with someone yet to act behind you?

[KEW]

Standard line for me here is to raise the "donk" to $12 and shutdown UI to ANY further aggression(including a cold call from CO)...

Donk bets like this is more often crap or marginal hands testing the PFer...

[Genz]

even if they have that size? most donks that folded to a raise that i have yet come across bet smaller. but they had fishier stats. does that change anything?

[shyturtle27]

I'd raise him here. I might call heads-up, but I'd squeeze a little here. If he's had some weird/aggressive lines then I have no problem raising here.

Villains bet is not that large(2/3 pot)..Raising defines our hand,put pressure on LP and makes the hand easier to play...Calling will leave us guessing on the turn...Raising may also fold a hand like TT/JJ some % of the time...

Call. Your hand is nothing exciting to go broke on.

[ocdscale]

Calling is tough, imo, because you have no idea where you are. If turn comes off with a Q, and Villain leads again? What if turn is a 3?

This can be something like 87, 98, A8s, as often as it's 88, 66, 22, or a OESD. Problem is that most of these hands will continue betting on turn if he puts you on AJ+.

[Genz]

What's your plan for the turn when a) CO calls b) it is HU? Fold to a bet? Raise? Bet if checked to? Check behind? Assume the turn card is something pretty blank like a small card or a T.
