Default Re: Is this common?

with two diamonds on board likely pair semi-bluff. Harrington Vol. 2 page 27 says, "When the board shows two of a suit and the opponent makes a big bet or moves all-in, most top players would think that a semi-bluff flush draw is now the most likely hand they're facing". Problem with overbet for villain is only hands that would call are hands that have villain beat.

"How big does your stack have to be inorder to call this PF? "

I believe you are missing a key component here, your opponents stack.

I think i call the flop against a very weak opponent and expect AK, AQ, AJ a REAL LOT of the time.

I take the overbet as weakness

This was my initial reaction. I had to choose between the donkish overbet and the donkish bluff.

My wife settled it when she looked over and said he has overs, you have to call. (Level 1 thinking)

It turned out to be the donkish bluff (KQo) which did not improve.

Which brings me back to my initial question: Is this common?

In my experience, no (the pure bluff w overs). I'd say it's evg's + nate's range way more often, 90%+ so.
