FWIW If we are bet/folding the flop I think we should check it.

WTF I'm bumping this how can anyone advocate a call here. Its so bad. If you are behind you have 5% equity if your ahead you have 50% equiyt.

You are smoking something if you think we are only getting it in at 5% or 50%. Unknowns are so bad it's not funny.

Its pretty hard for him to shove a hand that doesn't have over 40%
It still might be a call depending on how NFD heavy you think his range is and if he can shove hands like JJ no diamond or 10x no diamond which are the few hands you have more then 60% against.

The "random internet donk factor" is something you always have to take into consideration on hands like this one. Tx no diamond (or worse) isn't unhead of. Of course, wanting to call in marginal-to-bad spots like this and over-rationalizing it with the "random internet donk factor" is a dangerous thing to do as well. But that factor is relevant, esp. in donk-n-goes. People do do stupid crazy [censored] for (seemingly) no logical reason.

So I guess I sort of agree with both of you.

pretty gross spot. and suzzer, what is up with opening the pot to 60? is that more standard at the higher buyins?

call/fold like pretty close to me. i dont think you are behind too often, and there is a pretty nice overaly. you are a 52/48 dog to KdTc and i think you will be up against something in that range very often.

I always thought this was one of those have to call but really sucks spots. Like Pudge said, if we're folding, why not just check the flop?
