Failed stack a donk vs random river aggro

[Profish2285]

Villain runs at 20/16/3. His turn aggro is 4.6 and his stats suggest he likes to float so I went for the stack a donk. Is this river a mandatory call?

i guess anything is possible, but people generally don't play top pair or overpairs like this on the flop/turn. drawless flop too, except for 64/A4/45/56. mathematically, probably a bad call, but in reality who the hell knows.

I call and have villain show A3s ftw.

[Profish2285]

I just hate folding after putting in 1/2 my stack.

[Fletcher19]

definitely call.

You are only really behind 22/55/88 and he could easily be value towning worse

[Profish2285]

Thats what I figured, especially since my hand looks fishy after the turn check.

I think this is a reluctant fold, honestly. Villain is showing massive strength after we show massive strength. What hand is mistakenly value raising here? Is JJ raising expecting you to call with A8?

It's a bluff or a monster. I just don't see that many river bluff raise all-ins from villains. If any moderate hand thinks you're bluffing, they'll call.

Your psb really looks like a whiffed crai, too.

[Profish2285]

So 1/2 you guys call and 1/2 fold...hmmm

There is no way in hell you can fold here profitably.

Generally stack-a-donk means that you get raised on the flop, then decide to c/r AI on the turn. In this hand he just called so there's no guarantee for a turn bet so I'd just continue firing EVEN with your stat read, I want value out of those 8's and pairs and 45s'. As played, against a good/thinking player I call this, your line looks pretty bluffy and the only hand that beats you is 3x.
