Default NL50 QTo flops OESD, gets donked into PSB.

UTG calls, UTG+1 folds, <font color="#cc0000">Hero raises to $2.25</font>, 3 folds, UTG calls.

<font color="#cc0000">UTG bets $5.25</font>, Hero ???


I hate villian. He runs 50/10/2 He is a super donk who draws against odds, min bets, donk bets and min raises to death. This is the 1st time I have seen a PSB sized donk bet. Should we raise and call a shove or just call?

I'd only call if you think that villain will pay you off if an eight falls. He's showing some real strength for once, and I don't think it's unreasonable to give him credit for a real hand, albeit one like KJ or J7. Semibluffing isn't likely to make him go away, so depending on how likely villain is to stack off on a scary board, I'd either try to draw profitably, or fold.

I'd go for option #3.

Think awhile and then fold.

A lot of donkish hands hit this flop and if you raise, he calls and a blank hits, what is your plan then? Hope he gives you a free card? He might just donk the turn as well and then where are you?

Just wait until you have a made hand vs this villain and bet it. No need to force action with subpar hands.

I agree, fold is the best decision. A call would be horrible since more than likely the draw isnt getting there by the turn, if it gets there at all, and hes probably donking the turn. A raise would be good if he'd slow down but if there's a good chance it gets shoved over, dont do it.
