(100NL) A2s hits FD on the Flop

[patchdiaz]

What do you think about this one? I specially need advise on the river. Is it ok to shove or is it better to raise something like 40$? (he's got like 50 behind)

As played, river raise is fine.

Yeah everything here is good accept your flop raise. Raise to 25-30.

I'm mostly raising here for the free card. Why would you raise more if the 15$ is acomplishing the same? I mean... if he's like c-beting a flop and I got something like this ok i take the FE but here he's donking into the PFR so I'm guessing he's got something
If I make it 30$ he's more likely thinking "ok I either shove or fold" and if he shoves I got no pot odds to call with my FD. Can you explain it to me why are you raising more?

Thanks

You also have an overcard, and you're getting 3:1 anyway, so you do have pot odds to call.

You're raising for value here, not just for fold equity. Also, how much would you raise with here if you had a hand like AK/KQ/KJ? You want to play all these hands the same way. You also want to take away HIS pot odds. With your min-raise, he's getting &gt;4:1 to call. If you raise to $30, he's only getting ~2:1. Big difference.

people donking into the pfr doesnt mean [censored]

Ok ty all. I'm betting more on the flop then leason learned.

Best wishes.

If I raise preflop and some donkey bets OOP small into me I am raising this something like 100% of the time. This is a draw like always.
