    Default AA 50NL facing turn donk on 3flush card

    I shouldn't have much of an image at this point, i hadn't been in any big pots. I haven't won any pots off the fish yet. the fish is 80/20, has donked and stabbed at pots and called down in others, haven't seen him c/c flop lead turn. I remember Brian Townsend saying in a vid when someone took this line against him that he figured they would usually be on a draw.

    do you like the turn shove?

    why are you shoving the turn? do you think he'll call you with worse?

    I'd think about folding and call instead

    no

    one of the two obvious draws just completed.... um....
    put villain on a likely range. Are you shoving to protect your hand? bluffing? value??

    yea i think he probably has a flush draw or some sort of combo draw... i don't think he's going to fold a draw to my shove. just not sure what portion of his range is draws and what portion im drawing dead against.

    Shove seems like your worst option. If you dont want to fold then call and call a blank river.
    Just dipping my toes back in.

    And this is the beginning of the end.

    But yeah... Call turn, and call blank rivers imo. Fish are just as likely to c/c, donk when they hit their draws as they are to suddenly spaz out with a spade, or bluff.
