Without reads on him I can’t fold an over pair here and his sizing is also crappy. Not sure what he want to accomplice with his pot size bet and I would stack off here, because he could have a Q or draw here I think.

Cheers,

Really not used to see those donk pot bets, so I wasnt to sure what to expect from him. I believed that when he did this it meant he would have a lot of Tx hands with a pair, giving him alot of equity against our hand, and at the same time having some two pair combos that he want to get it in with as quick as possible on this wet board. But then again I rarely see those moves in micros, so I didnt knew what kind of hands to put him on.

Thanks for the feedback tho :f_thumbsup:
Something that I forgot when playing the hand was that we block a lot of straights by having two of the kings. I can see shoving as the best option now
