Re: LO8 2/4 hand - Donk Raise on River?
On the river, putting in 2bb costs you 1bb if you get quartered. The BB is also putting in 2bb, so you get a quarter of 4bb=1bb. If you smooth call the SB might call, but who knows, he could have some sort of busted draw and would fold anyway. It's hard to say what BB has, but it seems to me it's worth a shot to raise and knock out a better high. Even if CO calls and you get quartered in a 3-way pot, that's not a disaster. I don't think BB will 3/4 you by himself so often that it's a mistake to raise (it depends if he is LAG or a nut-peddler). As Buzz says, after everyone sees how you played this hand, you are likely to get called down next time in the same circumstances, so you will want a legit high next time.
