1) Sure, easy check/raise.

2) I'm noone who is able to make such tough folds. A donk is way more often a flushdraw than a 5 so this looks more like a bluff for me.

Because it gets a check behind quite often, at least on "our" limits. There will be times that they think it is a bluff and might still raise us. I basically see it as some sort of getting sure value.

I didn't read the article about donkbets yet though. And I asked the question on the dutch forum, but then in the example of hitting a flush on the river, the judge said it was best to just donk it there.


In most other situation I agree with you but here the opponent raised on a J which make me believe that he has hit twopair or at toppair goodkicker. Nothing special yet but additionally I don't believe this opponent is able to raise for a free showdown which makes the made hand more likely.
