Ok this is really quick.

I raise [Ks] from mp, the CO and BB both call.

Flop is [Jd][6c], BB checks, I CB, and CO now shoves a 130BB in the middle.

It is now 120BB more for me to call. So, I'm risking 120bb to win a pot the size of 270bb.

Villain is running at 47/17 with 60% folds to flop bet over about a 35 hand sample. He's done nothing retarded like this before. I would snap this off if we were just full and it were 80bb more to me, but 120bb more and 3 to the flop I'm just not sure. I think this is usually a draw, but also 66 and JK some of the time too.

Yeah sorry no hh, but what am I doing here?

if villain was a good player this is one of those impossible spots where you're equally screwed with a call or a fold.

but against this villain you describe i call pretty quickly.

There is much a good player is going to be overbet shoving with here.

This spot isn't all that much fun, but I can't really find a fold here. I really don't have a clue what he would be doing this with. Donks love to slow play there monsters, so this is really weird.

Saw this today, and thought of this thread. "Donk" in question running 44/8 after 55 hands.

Of course, this was an open shove on a little drier board, but since he was kind enough to show...
