I don`t like what happened here. I only have 25 hands with villain but he looks like a fish (52/4 preflop). I decided to call all the streets, because I didn`t see reason to reraise anywhere, but I don`t like the shove a lot. There are too many hands that beat me and I should hope that he is betting worse king three streets which should be sth like KJ? Do you fold on the river here?

I think you played it fine. You could go bigger on the flop vs a fish.
But that line is bizaar and you can't fold turn.

How would you do that on flop. He's leading in to hero.
After his pot size bet on turn I would consider folding. Tough to expect he would bet so much as bluff, but without any info on him it's really tough to know.

Mis-read from phone. :f_love:

I think it's close. pot size on the turn is scary but it is a fish and his range can still include Kx (that's the assumption anyway).

Hi, I think I would raise the donk on the flop here then bet the turn 1/2-1/3 and x river if possible. Villain could easily have a worse king, a T or 9. Of course they could have the nuts or two pair as well. If they 3bet us then we can probably let it go. People aren't bluffing enough when the 3bet flops . Raising the flop here also increases our chances of getting to showdown without having to get the stacks in, which we don't want to do on this board particularly with TPTK. If villain donks the turn after we raise the flop.

As played after calling the flop, calling the turn is probably ok, but pot size it starts to become uncomfortable, but we still beat some Kx villain might barrel. Good fold on the river. We don't beat any value hands and can't see this being a bluff very often. Although vs a known maniac I would think twice.
