    Default Advice needed...how to proceed here?

    Hi all,

    This hand is from $1,2 at Absolute Poker. I wonder if there is anything that could be done here... is folding a reasonable action at any street? Should I bet less and fold to resistance in the turn? Check raise AI turn?

    Villain was a standard donk (40/5), he was betting 56% of flops and folding only 43% to flop bets (I rather to use these numbers than Cbet% because these donks barely raise PF...so...the sample is very small and their CBet% is usually 100% because when they raise, they are strong).

    I'll post results later, but in which range do you put him here?

    Personally, in a limped pot I wouldn't be surprised here if a 6 showed up in the villains hand, A6, K6, Q6, J6... There's also a whole bunch of low/mid pairs 22-99 he could be holding. I wouldn't suspect he's holding a T because from what I've seen, that type of player would re-raise if he held the T.

    That being out of the way, I would ship it on the turn IMO. I'd just do it moreso out of curiosity to see if he actually has the 6.

    Personally with that many players seeing the flop I check and see what action happens after me. It would be different if you were last to act but because you are first but one I'd just check.

    As played, I agree with illness that I would just shove over on the turn. If he has quads or TT+ then good luck to him. You just caught up to better Tx hands like AT, KT, QT etc.

    I agree with a turn shove. As mentioned you have caught up with with J10/Q10/K10/A10 but any J,Q,K, or A shows up on the river (as it did) and you're dead in the water.

    I'm assuming you lost the hand? I'm getting the feeling he might have 99 though also...?

    If you don't feel comfortable shoving the turn I'd at least put a pot sized bet. You need to protect what looks like the best hand but is a vulnerable hand even if it is ahead.
