Is the converter messed up? Hero checks?

Bet that flop.
Turn: now that you've under-repped your hand its tough to say where you are in the hand. A check min-raise generally beats one-pair.
River: Eh... tough to think you're ahead now. I don't like this.

Bet the flop. Try to get all the money in asap. If he's a donk, he probably doesn't have you beat.

As played on flop, I don't mind turn, so long as you call river, and shove if he checks. (All this is on the basis that he's a donk.)

Donk is a very general term, too general to make statements like this IMO. Is this the type of donk who overbets TPNK, or the type that calls down with any piece? Is it the type who sees monsters in every closet and you can run over?

Bet the flop, save the headache. If he has an A hes paying you more when you make a standard c/b and avoid suspicious plays. Bet the hell out of the A and pray he doesnt catch his 3 outter. On turn, i might fold since c/r is generally 2 pair, though depending on what type of donk he is and what buyin is i would consider just calling him down and hopin he misread the checks for weakness and has the stones for a bluff, or just overplays a weaker hand.

TPTK is not big enough to slow play(which is lame in general). Just bet the damn flop and get some value out of your hand.
