1/3 top2

1/3 7 handed
V1 stacks 400ish, tight player for the most part
V2 stacks 350ish, loose fish, will bluff rivers when checked to
V3 stacks 500+ Laggy, Hero has already 3betted him multiple times tonight, he called one of them, flop 57qss jammed my cbet for 500+ w/ a5o reds???, i folded. His opening range is super wide k5s, a6o, a5o etc.
Hero stacks 550 tight aggro, has been folding alot but 3 betting light all night.

V1 in Mp limps, V2 Hj limps, V3 Co opens to 15, Hero in bb flats w/9tss, normally I'd 3bet or fold, but this is a good hand to play multiway,
V1 and V2 call

Pot 61
Flop 9t5r(1h) Hero donks 25, V1 calls, V2 calls, V3 fold.

Pot 131
Turn 6h
Hero?

V1 range some JQ, 78, 55, Tx type hand
V2 range super wide, have no clue. some draws some 1pair type hands.

What's our plan here? check? bet?

I was planning on donking big on safe turns, 6 completes the st8 for 78.

So a "tighter player for the most part" is open limp-calling this range from MP?


Pf is meh. Id rather 3b but i like folding best.

Flop donk is bad just check and see. Bet turn if it gets checked around. As played check turn


Why are we donking 1st to act, 4-ways, when the OR is a maniac and will act last? Were you hoping they'd raise the call parade? Also, 25 into 61 looks OK to freeze action/block bet for a draw on T95r, but we're not drawing. They probably are. Seems like an easy as can be x-r, and if V3 x-back, then start really worrying, lol.

AP, sure V can have 87 or 55. They can have lots of other things too. JT, 98, QJ, etc... Seems like b/f for like 70-80 is good here. They raise, you're likely toast.

Edit: don't like x Turn because described Vs aren't going to bet this, we're OOP, we're not really drawing, and I don't want to give free cards to any backdoor FD or other straight draws.


This hand does not play better multiway, but preflop call isn't terrible. I don't like the flop lead OOP multiway.

Because any decent LAG is going to know it's foolish to blast this particular flop vs. three other players.

I'm not saying I like the donk, but it's not like we can expect an auto-bet here from the Villain.

+1 to folding pre because of rake and that this hand does not play well mway

Donking is good (but should be bigger) because:
1) we have 2 players yet to act before the maniac that can call our bet.
2) even if the PFR is a maniac, they may proceed more cautiously multiway

I don't mind the donk, but i prefer a check/raise vs aggressive players.

I can go either way on turn, but i probably bet again to not give a free card.
