$1/$2 Fixed-Limit Hold'em (6 handed)

Preflop: Hero is CO with Q:h, K:s.
MP2 folds, MP3 raises, Hero 3-Bets, BU caps, 2 folds, MP3 calls, Hero calls.

Flop: (13.5 SB) 9:h, 9:c, 3:d (3 players)
MP3 checks, Hero checks, BU bets, MP3 calls, Hero calls.

Turn: (8.25 BB) K:c (3 players)
MP3 checks, Hero checks, BU bets, MP3 folds, Hero calls.

River: (10.25 BB) Q:d (2 players)
Hero bets, BU folds, Hero gets uncalled bet back.

Final Pot: 10.25 BB.

I think a turn c/r would be too much. I donk the river to prevent him from checking behind with TT and JJ.

Well played for me.

You're not in good shape against a capping range on the turn and a c/r would be overplayed.
Donking the river to prevent a free SD is fine as well.

Maybe donk the turn to prevent TT-QQ from checking it behind?

I think he will bet these holdings himself if he's not overly weak.

Hi!

Yes I like turn donk here the most. K looks quite scarry when he has AQ, TT-QQ


Would you check TT-QQ behind, Dawnfall?

Many players will indeed donk with a K and as no one does so he is likely to bet, I think.
