LOL minraise hijack

as for theorem, the example you gave was a pretty big overbet but very often, especially in an unraised pot, when someone bets over the pot on a board like this it is a draw.
I have encountered this situation many, many times

I would generally tend to think a bet like that represents a small flush, 2 pair, or a set more often than a draw. I guess it could be an overpair as well. It looks more like he is protecting against draws than betting for value.

I agree to an extent that such overbets often occur at micro and low limits. Indeed, a very transparent player will often overdonk a strong made hand in such a spot because he is so afraid of the draw. However, a smaller percentage of the time, a player will do the same thing with the Ac here. It doesnt apply in this case obviously as u have it. I like the idea, but I think it is also read dependent.

Uh, can somebody call the cops, my thread got hijacked...

I don't usually understand why donks do what they do, but I can't imagine overbetting the nut draw in this spot. Donks do some strange things!!!

In the example he cannot have the nut draw, so it makes any draw less likely IMO

This is my read on the situation unless I have history to the contrary with this villain.

I'd like to theorize that on a 3 flushed or very drawy board, a huge over-donk bet that is designed to shut out all draws is always a strong made hand.

For a straightforward Tag, yes that's a good assumption.

For Mr Trickyballs or a lag, often it's not.

I usually lead w/ any flush just because of this and because players expect you to slowplay it.
