Another big overpair call hand

Have some stats on this guy, zero reads though, was too busy watching a classic episode of Newsradio :)

He is running at 44/12/7.5 over not too many hands, maybe 50 ish?

His donk bet is huge. But I've been raising a lot preflop and he can't possibly put me on a monster here. But since when does a random care about that?

Texas Hold'em $1-$1 NL (Real Money), #169,563,912
Table Panama City, 9 Apr 2007 12:58 PM ET

Seat 2: Galapogos [ Q:d:,Q:s: ] ($104.55 in chips)
Seat 3: odielleke ($194.35 in chips)
Seat 7: jermu69 ($47.05 in chips)
Seat 8: jey333 ($39.55 in chips)
Seat 10: RIVERGOLD1 ($81.05 in chips)

Antes/Blinds
RIVERGOLD1 posts blind ($0.50), Galapogos posts blind ($1).

Pre-Flop
odielleke calls $1, jermu69 folds, jey333 folds, RIVERGOLD1 calls $0.50, Galapogos bets $5, odielleke folds, RIVERGOLD1 calls $5.

Flop [board cards T:h:,5:s:,8:c: ]
RIVERGOLD1 bets $25, Galapogos bets $98.55 and is all-in, RIVERGOLD1 calls $50.05 and is all-in.

this seems standard enough. I doubt he's doing that donk bet with anything you are losing to.

Yeah, I expect to see JT/J9/AT/97/A8/JQ here a lot against a guy like this, or he is doing this with complete air, or hand liek AQ/77 every once in a while.

I'm not at home but the name Rivergold is embedded in my memory as donk. Either/or it's still a call.

this is so standard, I can only imagine that you go owned by some crappy 2pair

Actually he had T7o and I held. I'm not confident in my big overpairs. So I've been posting even the most basic hands if I felt there was a chance I could have played it badly. I want to make sure all aspects of even my most basic game are 100%

watching tv while playing is usually -EV, however watching newsradio can never be a bad thing.

nice. the best would have to be the one where Bill gives up smoking and Dave gives up coffee, or the Throwdini episode. Too hard to choose between the two.
