terrible river vs donk, good price.

opp in this hand is dinosaur 7. he's running 44.5/22.3. He hasn't gotten out of line, he seems pretty straight forward. more of a station than aggro donk.

i dont raise flop and lead strong a good turn.

as played i sigh and fold.

[|~|ypermegachi]

as played i think this river is a good place for a blocking bet.

[snowbird4life]

I don't see how you can fold here for this price. Isn't this a bluff/missed flush draw just as much if not more than it is a 9?

I also think a blocking bet on the river is a good idea, as most likely he is betting no matter what he has here.

[Dislexsik]

I wouldnt bet the turn.

[benny999]

id do pot control on the flop (bet or c/c). why'd u check raise?
lags like to float there and it sucks to check the river with like a pot bet left and not sure what's going on.

as far as the river i dunno, info might be good, but not sure if it's +ev since betting a missed flush draw seems kinda dumb.

Can you explain your reasoning for raising flop?

[Miffed22001]

isnt potting the turn a better play here or is that me thinking of the donks i play with on AP who would call there?
Whats your range for him on the turn because i know what mine is and i dont like the river play regardless.

wow ur obv beat or at least asked loudly for river bluff. i think u played this somewhat bad post flop in aall streets, imean u pleayed big pot with thrash hand... edit: sounds too harsh, i mean, ts okay if u put him on draws but still u created too big pot.

[benny999]

looking again, raising small on the flop doesn't make any sense. a bigger c/r then turn push sorta does. and i guess fold the river.

[Numbr2intheWorld]

Meh, i'm torn about the flop c/r. A c/c would probably be better, although with this guy he could definitely stack off with any J. Betting the turn after i c/r is definitely necessary though, i get a lot of calls from worse hands, and by potting it i'm just getting him off all his draws instead of allowing him to make a mistake by calling my $70 bet.

As for the blocking bet suggestion... what am i supposed to bet? $50 and call a shove? I can't just fold, i'd have way too good odds at that point.

In the real hand i folded and he showed KQo for a bluff. I'm pretty sure that i have to call this because of the missed FD and KQ.

c/c or lead seems better on flop
