Hi, i just wanted to post this, so someone can tell me that i did okay and just had a bad beat :)
I thought about chances of him having those cards but he did not raise on the flop so i assumed wrong...

I think I would have check raised OTF. Just calling and donking turn is not so good line in my opinion. And when villain raises our donk, I'm not sure if we should be going crazy. By doing so we are isolating ourselves against better hands or so strong draws that we are only flipping.

If he goes AI, we are most of the time vs better hand- sets, straight...

I don't quite understand this min donk OTT. If we are trying to protect vs flushdraws / straightdraws, the size should be bigger. We are probably trying to induce something, but I wouldn't be so sure that we want to with this hand. There are alot of better hands in his range. I think I would check/call all streets if A, K or 9 don't show (maybe donk river) and check/raise at some point if I hit fullhouse.

I also don't see reason to minbet OTT. We should x/r OTF or x/c OTF, OTT and OTR if you think villain is loose.
