Hi everyone. In this hand the preflop is standard I think, I 3bet to a min raise.
On the flop he donk bet the pot. Because he called a big reraise preflop, I don't put him on any 8X type of hand (maybe A8s but even that would be a weak hand to play in that spot).
Even if he had the 8 I can't understand why he donks if he can check and wait for the aggresor to bet with an ace on the flop and maybe then reraise.
On the other hand, if a reraise his donk bet I would be pot commited anyway so I decided to shove.
I don't know if this is well played or maybe I should have done something different.
Let me know your thoughts. Thank you!

The donk is weird indeed. But if you raise him, does he call you with anything weaker than 8x or AA? At nl2 probably yes but in general I think you could just call and let him continue betting.

Agree. Pot donk in 3b pot.... call and see turn.
