Bigger turn raise ? And your opinion about the hand.
Preflop depend of villains. As default I would fold (weak Axo are meh hands), but if BU is tight and blinds are fishy or tight it's fine.
Postflop is fine. No need to raise bigger and I would tend to raise bit smaller actually.
Don't want to raise/fold the turn. Can't we just call? The turn almost doesnt change anything; we're either way ahead or way behind. He either has 2pair/set/straight/Jx/better Ax/air. I'm not sure how much value there is in a raise.
Since we can improve on the river with a J or 6 (if behind) I'd like to see it.
He has min donk bet twice which rarely means strong hand. So by raise we can get value from 7x, Jx and some flush draws (unlikely combos). Unknown can still call also with KT, Q9 and such.
I would be surprised to get reraised here. Call will lose some value imo.

this.
you raise turn for value vs draws and worse pairs (which there are a LOT imo).
not sure what this min-donk/shove means, but i expect a ton of min-donk/flats on the turn from a range we have drawing to 20%~
Imo, mindonk is either nuts or very weak hand. So yes, there is value raising vs the air if he flats a lot with his super weak range. But if he folds all his 1 pairs vs this raise on a perfect card for our range (i.e. he can't think we're bluffing) and only continues with nuts, there is much less value.
So, even though i'm not expecting to get shoved on much here when we do decide to raise, I don't think that means we have to raise or that it's necessarily the best play.
