Default Combo draw and a lil confused.....

Villain who donked is a vanilla. He either has TPTK or a set when he donks. Should I still raise and get the money in or just call? I don't like slowing down, but is -EV knowing he is probably not folding?

Does he stack off with TPTK? Or can he Fold TPTK?

because theres a third guy still to act i prefer a call.

if you were heads up and knew he had either top pair or a set wouldnt he only call with sets, thus making this prolly not the best line?

Plus if he's always got TPTK or a set your A outs are no good and your 9 outs are much weaker, so this is not a very strong combo draw. I don't like jamming here.

Isn't folding out TPTK a good thing though?

I figure with no FE and a player left to act calling was best. Now for the turn?
