Default $3R - KQo on the button

God I hate those [censored] spots in low limit donkaments. Everytime I fold, I get shown junk and everytime I call I'm up against a monster. Once again I'm getting over 2:1 on the call and don't know what to do because hand reading is nearly impossible against those donks...

Should I have checked the turn (board looks a bit too scary for a free card)? What's the play on the river?

fold or raise preflop. I don't limping just for this reason. Its a limped pot, you don't want to stack off with tp. You also have no idea where you are in the hand, and you are relatively deep. As played, easy fold. He has 99 imo.

I hate the button limp to be honest. You have no idea of where UTG is at.

Raise preflop and the hand becomes a lot easier to play imo

We're beating KJ, and that's about it, I think we'll be shown a set a high % of the time with his line, possibly AK if he's one of these limp AK early retards... puke fold.
