Hand converted with online PokerStrategy.com hand converter:

Play hand

$0.01/$0.02 No-Limit Hold'em (8 handed)

Known players:
[tg]BU (Hero)$2.31:///////;SB$2.00:///////;BB$3.40:///////;UTG2$2.00:///////;MP1$4.34:///////;MP2$3.88:///////;MP3$2.03:///////;CO$4.10:///////;[/tg]

Preflop: Hero is BU with A:c, J:s.
UTG2 posts deadblind, UTG2 checks, MP1 calls $0.02, MP2 calls $0.02, 2 folds, Hero raises to $0.14, 4 folds, MP2 calls $0.12.

Flop: ($0.35) 7:h, T:d, J:d (2 players)
MP2 checks, Hero bets $0.22, MP2 calls $0.22.

Turn: ($0.79) 5:h (2 players)
MP2 bets $0.35, Hero calls $0.35.

River: ($1.49) Q:d (2 players)
MP2 bets $0.75, Hero folds, MP2 gets uncalled bet back.

Final Pot: $1.49.

I saw this play a lot yesterday never had the balls to see what was up, don't know why, but would you say it usually represents? Should I raise turn or just fold? As played I suppose calling river is more correct but i don't even beat a flush draw that was semi-bluffed on turn. This kind of play always confuses me.

Hello ExMagnusxL,

Often times such donking is pretty strong unless the opponent is really aggressive. And I guess I'd play the same way, just for the reason that his play doesn't make sense at all.

Best regards.
