C/r flop and calldown to a 3-bet. They can easily play overcards this way, therefore you lose min vs overpair and get decent value from overcards if they do raise the turn for a freesd which is not really likely with these stats they don't seem decent ( I guess I could be wrong about c/r but I'd say they'd bet AK/Q for value here).

As played though you have to calldown although perhaps an anti-freesd donk would be possible if you're sure they wouldn't raise an overpair again (they would definitely bet the river again with it anyway) but they'd definitely call with OC's.


Hi bananaranger,

as TerrorBlade already mentioned it's better to check/raise this flop. Donkbetting gets you into tough spot as good hands can wait for the turn to raise you and you still don't know where you are.
If they 3-bet you you can just calldown. I doubt that they will do this very often with a worse hand so calldown and hope for a weird move or overplayed weaker pocketpair.

OMG I really donked the flop. I would never donk in that spot but I did. That is why I found myself in an unfamiliar spot and posted the hand.
And thank you.
