If you are always aggressive with mediocre hands and always passing/trapping with good hands you are extremely exploitable

That's not the case, it's not consistent, it just depends on the situation. Obviously flopping the nuts is a situation where I don't protect my hand enough when it's draw heavy. But I'll flop 10 2 3 with 10 10 and lead out, etc. So that's not a concern. I think it's just getting over the "omg I can't force him off whatever he has gimme ur moniez!!1" and betting my hand strong.

There is a balance between betting for value and betting for protection.

Bet enough so that he doesn't have odds to call but not so much that he folds. Donkey's are more than willing to call bets that give them incorrect odds.

Play good poker and let other players make mistakes and relieve them of their money.
