4th hand at the table. I've only seen UTG b/3b a turn that paired the board, then b/f a brick river, then he limps utg here...

Usually when I see this donk it's a 2nd/3rd pair type hand, or flush draw. What do you do here (peel/fold/raise)? Would it matter if there was a Heart on board? (Oh, and too light on the 3bet pre?)

Merge Network $0.50/$1 Limit Hold'em - 6 players

Pre Flop: (1.5 SB) Hero is CO with T Heart Q Heart
UTG calls, 1 fold, Hero raises, 2 folds, BB calls, UTG calls

Flop: (6.5 SB) 6 Club K Diamond 5 Club (3 players)
BB checks, UTG bets, Hero ?

looks like you raised pre, not 3bet. the raise is good

i just fold the flop and don't worry about it. these things happen

Well, yeah sorry i didnt mean to sound like I was whinning. I just didn't know if I had enough equity to continue/this pot was worth fighting for.

wasn't saying you were whining - just saying sometimes you don't flop well and there's no great way to continue or fight for the pot or whatever. if it were heads up and you had double backdoors or you knew for a fact the guy's donking range was only bp or mp, or you knew he often checked the turn after donking the flop and getting called, then we could consider it more. but that's all a pretty unlikely set of events
