Preflop: Hero is BU with K♥, Q♣
3 folds, Hero raises to $4.00, SB folds, BB calls $3.00.

Flop: ($8.50) J♦, Q♦, 8♥ (2 players)
BB bets $5, Hero calls $5.00.

Turn: ($18.50) 3♦ (2 players)
BB bets $4, Hero calls $4.00.

River: ($26.50) 4♥ (2 players)

Final Pot: $42.50

Lately I've been plagued by the sequence - small donk bet/small donk bet/ALL IN river! I've found out the hard way that this usually means a monster, so I get very concerned when seeing some mid-stack making small bets OOP.

raise for info/protection on the flop. It's very drawy, and you have no idea what he has by just calling.

Yeah, I know...lost my confidence somewhat.

He had complete trash though, so I would have made less.


when i flop top pair good kicker against a middle stack i want the money to go in as soon as possible so i would reraise here 100% both for protection and value

I'd raise the flop for protection.
