Default An appropiate donk?

no stats on villian, but what do you guys think of flop donking here?
What about HU vs limper?
Can you see yourselves donking any flop with a similar hand?
like maybe QQT hero has T8?
Preflop (6 players): Hero is BB with
UTG calls [2.4:1].
1 fold.
CO calls [3.4:1].
1 fold.
SB calls [6.67:1].
HERO checks.

Flop (4 small bets in pot, 4 players):

SB checks.
HERO checks.
UTG checks.
CO checks.

Turn (2 bets in pot, 4 players):

SB checks.
HERO checks.
UTG checks.
CO bets.
SB folds [3:1].
HERO folds [3:1].
UTG folds [3:1].

Summary:


CO doesn't show

I would lean towards betting the flop in 4 handed pots, assuming no reads. If the pot was 3 handed I would lean towards check/raising or even check/calling against players who are dumb enough to fire the turn with a lesser hand. The reason why I like check/raising more in 3 handed pots is cuz the last guy to act always bets when checked to, like its their freakin job or something. However this phenomenon is less present in 4 handed pots. Now the last guy is not as brave facing 3 opponents, so more flops do get checked around in this situation.

Seems like there's a good chance you have the best hand here, but it's vulnerable, so I would bet it. Sure I'm not ecstatic about my hand, and I'm willing to let it go, if I face to much resistance.

BTW, doesn't donking refer to betting into the aggressor on a previous street?

Easy bet,and anyone who has seen me playing for a while will fold many times even if they have the odds to call because I will donk a 9 or a 4 here.
