UTG is unknown, 29/21 over 14 hands.
Preflop and flop is standard i think. After UTG calls my bet i put him on a weak made hand, would expect he bets with his FD's/overpairs so i put him on 88-, maybe an AK or something he doesnt want to fold immediatly so my plan is to fire off 2 more barrels since he can't call those bets with any of those hands.
His donk on the river baffles me, i come across this play sometime, mostly when i'm up against bad players. I don't know what range to put him on, could he play FD's like this? or monsters? A5s is the only reasonable combination out there but a donk would still be bad since i betting the river most of the times....

Hi.

If he's a donk, I wouldn't be surprised to see him play his flush draws passively. He could definitely have some busted flush combos. He should have 54s 57s 56s in his c/c range as well. Not to mention some overpairs or top set type of hands.

And I don't like the idea of firing thrice vs the fish without equity and good reads on how weak he is postflop (whether he's a calling station or a nit)

Yeah i know, i should really stop barreling with 0 equity :).
How would you play the hand here, just bet the flop and be done with it?

You do turn the gutshot which makes betting Turn acceptable. but probably betting once and giving up is better.
