    the donk's range is gigantic with this play on this board

    pretty sure everyone will say call and see a turn so it can't that bad
    when the vpip's are high and the value bets are like razors, who can be safe?

    This looks like a kinda standard donk defend against a cont. bet.

    If he checks turn I am better pretty much any card. Folding turn if he bets tho unless a 7 spikes.

    Call because it is a minraise.
    The secret to success in poker is to rig the odds in your favor.

    I disagree. I've found minraises are almost always a set at these stakes in this spot. It takes like 5 minraises from donks to get it all in. I'm not saying that my read is a set, but I think the logic is flawed here.
