How do you think the fact that the donk is shortstacked effects his UTG range? If he realizes donk is only 50bb deep, he should be opening less A-xs and K-xs type of hands weighing down the amount of flush draws he will have in this spot and weighting his range more to suited connectors. When he doesn't raise the turn, I think we can eliminate pretty much any sets from his range aside from the few he could be flatting for balance or hoping you 3ball a blank. Also, how do you think the presence of the Q as a high overcard effects his tendencies to raise an overpair such as both TT and AA? I don't know if you're always 3-betting TT preflop but it seems reasonable we could have that in this spot. His perceived range also includes some floats and he might not want to scare you off if he in fact does have something like JJ here. But would he realize he should have a strong range here and raise anyway?

think the results are evidence that he's opening super wide pf. i think if they flat overpairs on flop, they mostly flat turn with TT+. obv slightly more likely to raise the bigger ones
Could someone give me the link to the video where Wilt talks about donking?(He mentioned he talked about it on RealLifeUnlGrinder, but I couldn't it)
Awesome first episode, really looking forward to the rest of the series. My initial thoughts on the last hand are that he thinks u don't have a J when u check the river so he must have the best hand, but I feel he is weighing other info (reads/metagame/random voices in his head that tell him what to do) in his decision to bet here b/c it's obv just too thin otherwise. Another possibility.... this would be an easy shove if he could see your cards....is this UB?
P.S. bluffalo I lol'd

yea i mean it seems like he should give me credit for having Jx there a good amount if hes a decent handreader and he knows i'm not dumb... so either hes trying to run a suicide bluff or he correctly determined that i can click the call button w/ bluff catchers of varying strength.

I don't recall it being mentioned, but in the first hand what are we doing with AK of spades when villain bets this turn?
On the river it seems we can't value bet AQ, would that be correct?
You also say that villain should be shoving the river with anything better than AQ, but we seem to have AQ pretty crushed. AQ is the bottom of our range and we have a decent number of better hands. Given this and how hard it would be to get called by worse if we value bet AQ, should villain not be check folding AQ here? It seems like he should be vs jk3a here, but would that be a mistake against most regs?

On the last hand, I think he just discounted the Jack from your range when you x/c the turn. I mean you were torn about whether he was valuebetting or bluffing, like what you expect him to bluff you off? You dont have AK with this dynamic, neither a set (you shove pairs pre, big ones at least in his mind) so he has to be like just didnt give you that much of a hand and thought you were bluffcatching here a lot and probably was aware of his big bluffing range and maybe he thought he had to widen his value range, dont know if it would be good, he can widen it by having set if he likes, or he might be just not that good.

calling turn with AsKs. we have position, can't check fold. assuming he almost never checks with better than AQ and as you can see can talk himself into a bad call, we should def bet AQ
This isn't exactly what I imagined when I made a series suggestion here: http://www.google.com/moderator/#15/e=63c6&t=63c6.40&f=63c6.5e7e0
but no one from DC contacted me or anything to ask for any further clarifying suggestions.
I only bring it up so the people who voted for the suggestion know this is a different direction than i originally envisioned.
Thankyou, tyvm.

saying he was "bluffing" is kind of in jest given that its kinda hard for me to give a random reg enough credit for thinking that i'm bluff catching with very many worse hands...but you're definitely right, there arent any better hands he's getting me to fold!
