I'd calldown with A-high depending on opponent, but K high seems to be weak unless you have special read.

This turn donk can be anything including weird gutshot w/o SD value like Q8 or T5, lose passive fish like to donk flush draw there too or combination of both. Turn call is definitely correct (even if he has any pair with your up to 10 outs) and river is blank so another call seems to be OK.

(maybe include some stats ;))


Hi Benido,

nice to have another good player around. :)

I made a little list about turndonks a while ago and while the samplesize was very small it was more ofteen a made hand than a picked up draw. Such as T8. But as the turn here is really a blank and a flushdraw is possible now I think he has the draw often enough to justify a calldown if the riivercard is a blank as well.
I fold the river to any :diamond:, T or 8 as it's no pure K-high calldown. We still have up to 10 outs against a pair so folding the river unimproved to bad cards should be no mistake. :)
