$0.25/$0.50 Limit Hold'em - 9 players

Pre Flop: (1.4 SB) Hero is BTN with 8 :club: A :heart:
4 folds, MP2 calls, 1 fold, Hero raises, 2 folds, MP2 calls

Flop: (5.4 SB) 9 :club: 3 :diamond: 4 :club: (2 players)
MP2 bets, Hero calls
Should I R here? Calling is so weak, esp. if villain has an FD.

Turn: (3.7 BB) 2 :heart: (2 players)
MP2 bets, Hero folds

Final Pot: 3.7 BB
MP2 wins 3.6 BB

why is calling weak? he does the betting for you and if he has a FD you still have the best hand. the thing is that he also donks any pair or pocket-pair, so it is a wa/wb situation. i'd peel the flop and depending on villains stats call or fold this turn.

Hi!

Dont mix wawb with this situation. WAWB means that either you or your oponent have very few (usually up to 3) outs against each other. In this case your oponent or you usually have 6+ outs against eachother.

But yes calldown is the best play against unknown here.His donkbets are draws/weak made hands or sometimes even just overcards or monsters. Basically his range is very wide and fold is not an option on the flop at least.
Also raise against unknown doesnt make much sense as your hand has to much strength and getting 3bet tells you very little as he may easily play FD this way.

Folding this turn is very bad. You got yourself additional outs+you are folding the best hand decent amount. Call and usually call river again and take a note of what he showes.
