Step on it or not

At the low stakes money is made because many overplay , go to far, reach for hopes etc

Does this mean I, on general, should expect to earn money here by taking it easy or step on it?

why would you donk the flop? But yeah I 3-bet, and just c/c the river if he caps.

[/ QUOTE ] Ya was unsure about that. At the time I thought him aggro enough to raise all his A`s and PP`s containing a spade, also I thought it might underrep/look like I`m overplaying. Do you feel it allows him to play perfect?

I'm probably either going to c/r the flop, or wait for a nonspade turn and c/r if I feel like this guy fires a second barrel nearly 100% of the time.

The problem is if these guys have 1spade you can't protect your hand, so you might as well play for value.

If flop was rainbow would you donk or c/r?

BTW I don't think it is a big mistake, but I think i can get more money in the pot when I am likely ahead by going for a c/r.

Wouldnt donk a rainbow unless very spesific read ie I could release knowing im up vs str, set or better 2 p
Most ppl take wa/wb line to a donk w A high flopp comes.
Some are sure ur bluffing
But I feel alot of ppl go uberaggro with flush draws

Prob is when I donk some ppl will correctly draw, and raise when they have me beat.
So I think a donk is wrong mostly and a c/r is less revealing?
