    I'd call since we're in position and can see if he fires again.
    Some days it feels like I've been standing forever, waiting for the bank teller to return so I can cash in all these Sklansky Bucks.

    hmm its a bit open t oany move.

    fold is fine

    call is okay but i think is the worst option

    RR is good since most of the time a weak bet is exactly that
    Jman: every time the action is to you, it's an opportunity for you to make the perfect play.

    Yeah, I think maybe I should have re-raised to 200 or so and shut down if he calls unless I hit a Q on the turn. I just find that these sorts of weak donk bets are in fact A-no kicker.

    True, but I'm not sure that I would be able to get away from the hand if a Q came on the turn, considering that we have 10 outs on the river to beat opp even if he has a K.

    true, tho after i posted my reply i did think the Aces will pay you off maybe enough to offset losses when your beat.
