Thinking at a higher level - or Donk bet

Recommended Posts

Just been watching a video from one of the Training Sites and the below hand came up. Which had a couple of spots that I thought 'Why do that ?', and even after istening to their reasons (they had 2 pros commenting) I didn't wholly agree with them. Are they playing at a level above us (well me :)) or does anyone else think they are wrong ? The Blinds are 20/40 playing a $1k on Full Tilt Stacks - Pro1 = 2260 Small Blind = 1890 Folded around to Pro1 in Cut Off Pro1 :Ac: :Qc: Raises 3xBB - 120 Button Folds Small Blind Calls Flop :Qh: :9d: :Jc: Small Blind - Checks Pro1 bets - 195 POINT 1 Here the pro comments that 'I'll bet fold this flop' I don't totally agree with this , maybe - if I was Check raised here not sure I would be folding ..... What do you others think ?? Anyway the betting continues Small Blind - Calls Turn - :5c: Small Blind Checks Pro1 -Bets 400 Here he comments that he would call the Check raise (with the additional Outs from the flush) Small Blind - Calls River - :Js: Small Blind - Checks POINT 2 Pro1 - Shoves all in for 1550 Commenting he 'Really thinks a Shove is correct in this situation' What do you others think ?? I'd have definitely Checked behind on that River, thinking I'm only getting called by a hand that beats me :unsure The small blind calls showing :As: :Jh: and takes a nice pot. Personally can't see the reason for the shove, am I worng or are they :lol

Re: Thinking at a higher level - or Donk bet Point1: wtf? he has top pair and top kicker with just 3 players... that's super strong, no fold! Point2: I wouldn't go all in either. Villain can be slowplayed a J or a straight or FH. I would simply call for the showdown, and not put more money in the pot. Good chance to win it and the pot is big enough already.
