Pre Flop: (pot: 1.5 BB) Hero has 8♥ J♥

fold, Hero raises to 2.5 BB, CO calls 2.5 BB, fold, fold, BB calls 1.5 BB

Flop: (8 BB, 3 players) 9♣ 3♠ 8♣
BB bets 7 BB???

-I have a hard time when facing donk bets. What should I do here for example?
-In worse case scenario he should have a draw.
-IMO just fold.

Hi Hashkan

Preflop: you are raising quite loose here with shorties and mid stacks in the pot.

Postflop: He is donking close to pot 3 way so your best bet is to fold right away.

You have to take each donk as it comes and look and think about bet size, # of players, actions, etc.
