This was played against the same opponent as this hand

I decided to call the minraise on the flop, given my gutshot + backdoor. Turn seemed perfect to donk. Should I've c/r-ed instead?

Hi all,

I'd raise preflop less (100 is enough from CO at these stakes).

I like your flop play (though I'd cbet even less than half pot here, something like 125 to start as it's such a dry board). Given he can have some air, I like your lead on the turn. However I prefer committing myself here, and making sure he can't think in his mind that we're taking some cheap stab/fold line on the turn. I think something like 900 would do it (outright shoving just looks like a draw).

I dislike c/r turn as I'm not sure we'll have enough behind usually vs most sizings, though it's close.
