    Default Bad Push?

    I can't understand why he would donk bet this? I thought JJ...

    PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $1.00 BB (6 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

    UTG ($330.90)
    MP ($381.95)
    CO ($51.40)
    Hero ($183.20)
    SB ($100.50)
    BB ($100)

    Preflop: Hero is Button with A, A.
    1 fold, MP raises to $3.5, 1 fold, Hero raises to $13, 2 folds, MP calls $9.50.

    Flop: ($27.50) A, J, 7 (2 players)
    MP bets $19, Hero raises to $170.2, MP folds.

    Final Pot: $216.70

    Was this a bad push or should I have just raised to $60ish?

    flattin ur 4bets, makin u tilt
    what on earth ?!?

    who cares if JJ makes the most sense, theres no way he hates any turn card and neither will you. raise to like 45 and see what develops.
    My bankroll is the amount of money I would spend or lose before I got a job. It is calculated by adding my net worth to whatever I can borrow.

    Yah, I don't blow him out of the water at all. He's got 4 outs at best and I don't raise it over $50, if I even do raise it here.

    I had just got suck out on twice before this hand so I think that contributed to this push. Plus I am getting a lot of donk bets like this and I am not always sure how to handle them. I always seem to make the bad choice in these spots, does anyone have a solid system or theory on donk bets?
