    What's the proper bet size here? He's obviously a donk and will call a bet here with trash.

    I folded him, making probably at least a $15 mistake.

    I make a weak $15 value bet here and hope it looks weak enough for him to raise.

    Leading the flop would be a better line here...he would be less suspicious and more aggressive. I think he has a high PP, QQ or KK. If you lead he probably raises and then you are in a great position to take his stack.

    As played, I probably throw in 10 - 15 bet...

    I would've liked leading out the flop here and weak betting the turn so much better, but with the line you had something around 15 sounds good.
