Common horrible spot against a donk with TpTK (NL$100 6-max)

Opponent is 33/0 over 12 hands. Take that for what it's worth. Full stacks.

1. Opponent limps in mp, CO limps, I raise to $6 on the button with [Ac][Qd], only donk calls.

2. Flop [Qc][8d][7d], pot $14. Donk checks I bet $11.50, donk calls.

3. Turn [9s], pot $36. Donk checks, I bet $28, donk calls.

4. River [4d], pot $92. Donk open shoves for $54....... we call this?

*I know 12 hands isn't much, but this is at least his 4th hand he's limped so IMO that's enough of a read that he sux0rz.
The better player should win the race. Always.

I think he could be 'slowplaying' KQ or QJ or be shoving 9x thinking he's good/bluffing/whothehell knows often enough for calling this to be +EV.
Poker is silly.

It is not enough to be good at chess, you must also play well.

Somewhere in the world someone is training when you are not. When you race him, he will win.

What's his postflop aggression? If he never ever ever raises PF then his postflop aggression is probably very low too. I fold.

Iceman talked a long time ago about not paying off the idiot flush chasers when they hit. I still think that's an important concept. If he can make this bluff with a missed draw of some kind then good for him; the number of players at $100 6-max with that play in their arsenal is pretty low.

You've shown nothing but strength on every street, he has to put you on at least TPTK and he doesn't care.

Don't forget a straight draw hit on the turn too.
