UTG calls 0,50, <font color="red">Hero Raises to 2,5</font>, BTN folds, SB calls 2,25, BB folds, UTG calls 2,00 <font color="blue">(potsize: 8,00)</font>

SB bets 0,50, UTG calls 0,50,<font color="red">Hero??</font>


What to do with this crazy donkbet?


After some reactions I'll show what I did and post the turn, because the turn is interested too...

Bye,

I'm raising these donkbets most everytime, but multiway on this board you probably aren't getting anyone to fold.

Heads up I pretend he checked and Whammo the [censored] out of it.
threeway I take the cheap card.

[Ivar]

I took the cheap card and this was the turn action:


<font color="blue">(potsize: 9,50)</font>
Turn: A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]
SB bets 4,00, UTG calls 4,00,<font color="red">Hero???</font>

folds. a half pot bet and call is bad for you and there's a lot of river cards that will be hard to play.

If you call, what do you do if SB or UTG jams a rivered A or J? what about another [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]?

I don't think you'll ever fold any hand that's beating you by pushing.

that only leaves folding. You might win occasionally a showdown here, but I'd just take notes and play better in spots later.

I like the flop call and the turn fold also.
