this is DON and we are just 7 players - 5 are doubled.

Preflop - c/f - trying to hit something nice
FLOP - opponent raise but i thing may hand is just better so many time - i cant imagine his range here - becose with set he should reraise and with 99 22 its must fold. I thing he can have ace
TURN - check - check
RIVER - now i am sure he/she dont have AK becose that raise is so small - so now i think i have to reraise.but now i have so many chips -i am definitely doubled(if i win).

1-is this play ok?
2-does anybody know about some article about DON?????? PLS

Hello,

Preflop: Raise it up!

As played
Nice hand, well played.

Best regards,
Rensu


Here you can find the basic content for DoNs.
In this hand you have to raise your AQs. You have a big stack which will make the others play pretty tight against you and you absolutely do not want a confrontation with the other bigstack.
As the board is not drawy at all on the flop I would just call him down and fold to really big bets.
Turn and river is ok. As you said there is no sense in raising again as your stack is pretty good and you only lose a lot against better hands.
