Hi, this is not really relevant due to the pot size but I was wondering what would be the best line on the river to extract max value? donkbet or x/r?
with donk we choose the bet size, but with check he could bluff with busted draws that will likely fold against any bet

Hello,

I would usually go for cbetting the flop here against unknown as they are usually going to muck 88-22 here.

As played, I prefer betting the turn myself in order to build up the pot.

In this spot, I think check/raise has more value than donk bet.
The problem is, that I don't expect him to call a donk with something like A high, but he could bet it himself, also if he has Tx he's probably not raising, but he might call a raise, so I would check/raise here.

Best,
Plamen
