Hi,

i have never seen villain donk before, so i don't know anything about his range. Would you in general recommend to delay the action to the turn on such a relatively dry board?

Grabbed by Holdem Manager
NL Holdem $0.02(BB) Replayer
SB ($2)
BB ($1.55) [ 37 / 15 / 19 WtSD (40h)]
UTG ($1.82)
UTG+1 ($1.59)
UTG+2 ($1.10)
MP1 ($0.77)
MP2 ($2.15)
Hero ($2.44)
BTN ($1.35)

Dealt to Hero K♥ K♣

fold, fold, fold, fold, fold, Hero raises to $0.06, fold, fold, BB calls $0.04

FLOP ($0.13) 8♦ 3♣ T♠

BB bets $0.04, Hero raises to $0.14, BB folds

Hello HughJazz82,

Preflop: Raise to 4xBB.
Postflop: Seems to be fine and protect your hand. He may easily donk with draws or even weaker pairs there.

Best Regards.

Standard openraise size from CO/BU is 3 BB, isn't it? However, i raise any hand from CO/BU to only 3 BB, so at least there is no balancing leak if you're thinking of that.

Nah, on those limits I would raise it for value. You don't have to balance anyways with the raise sizes with strong hands.
