SH20 - blind defense 2Pair

Hi.

PF: Standard flat here

F: Donking could potentially be a fine play but I think 3betting the Flop is overplaying your hand. He only ships stronger hands here, with a range of combodraws/sets/straights/better two pairs. You are isolating yourself vs better. Do you really think he raises AK/AA here in this spot, especially when you pot the Flop? I don't think so.

I'm not too sure whether you should actually donk though. If he cbets all the time then checking makes way more sense than leading. Then again, I don't really like check/raising this flop and I don't really want to let my opponent check back the Flop so I think leading 3 streets is definitely a good option. He also shouldn't cbet too often when the board is so wet.

T: Turn is a blank, so shove and hope for the best, after you already put so much money into the pot.

Thanks.

I think such a player could make such a minraise with AK since he maybe just thinks he hits well.
I agree that villain would only ship with better hands after my 3B. And from that point of view i can't 3B/call for value.
But looking at his huge range preflop he could always call with a lot of flushdraws.

So should i just call the flop because i can't go broke and give him a cheap draw to his flushes because my equity is not that great vs his range anyway?
