Can you dodge bullets like a boss?

We face a tough decision on the Turn. Can you find a way out?

This week we're hungry for some low-stake Zoom action on PokerStars. Our Hero finds himself on the CO with a nice hand, and so he raises hoping for some action.

An unknown player protects his Big Blind with a 3-bet. We decide to make the pot bigger and get more value with our hand and our deep stack. After all, in late positions, ranges tend to get wider, and our 4-bets will be called more often. The Villain makes that call.

The Flop doesn't look threatening to our holding, but BB decides to make a big donk bet as if he wants to extract as much value as possible from his hand before it's too late, or he may not want to see the showdown. Hero decides that calling the Flop is be more reasonable. This time folding right away is not an option.

The Turn card doesn't seem to have changed anything in our opponent's tactics. Looks like it's at least a blank, rather than an obstacle. But that could mean trouble for us. BIG trouble.

And now it's your turn: should we gladly accept the money on offer or dodge this and call it a day? Only two options this time: call or fold. But does it make things simpler?

This could very well be a big fat value bet from a set. Suited connectors may also be present in his 3-bet/calling range, so straights and two-pairs are possible as well. What if he wants to get our stack before a particularly unpleasant card appears for us on the board, thus preventing us from calling?

On the other hand, we may face a weaker hand desperately trying to protect itself. Can our opponent be brave enough to attack our overpair on purpose using deeper effective stack as leverage?

Last week's results

Most of 548 voters from last week preferred to just keep betting, no shoving needed. This option ranges from 51% in our French community to 76% in Italy.

What's more interesting is an increased percentage of true Spartans in both the English (21%) and Portuguese (33%) communities. These guys fear nothing, take everything and give nothing back!
