I think playing separate hands vs the same player on two different tables at the same time has some important psychological effects. I have recently been experimenting with different ways to take advantage of the impact it has on the other player. This is an example of one of those hands. Villain in this HH is waitamin08 a 25/20 TAG who seems pretty solid. My image has been pretty snug lately and I'm running around 23/20.

This hand happens first.

I bet the river as a bluff, expecting to fold out his Ts and 88 99 type of hands. At the same time this hand was happening on another table we were playing at.

I donked the turn immediately after betting the river in the previous hand. He called the river bet in hand 1 and showed up with 55 which I found to be very surprising. After calling in the original hand villain calls my donk lead on the turn bringing a Jh as the river card. Whats my line?
