I just wanna say that loved the two rants you went on when you discussed results on opponent's play. More of DD random diatribes and 'tirades' please!
Now to one question, which still wasn't clear to me. On the theme "donked when capped preflop" do I ever raise a semibluff (FD, OESD, but no pair) there? I didn't understand your reasoning why not except that people don't fold pairs, which I do agree with.

Off the top of my head times I think it might be reasonable to raise flop as a bluff / semibluff: Ace high board where we have a very weak hand with backdoor potential and the right opponent type. Strong semibluffing hand we want to mix it up with (say 87s flops OESFD - could raise/cap and then bet some turns and possibly even just the good old free card play). Anyone got any more spots for it? Even the ones I mentioned obviously have their drawbacks, but I guess that makes sense considering when someone 3 bets pre, calls a cap, and donks into us, they just aren't folding all that often.
This series has been one of the most interesting and helpful LHE one I've watched so far. I've learnt a huge amount from it and eliminated a lot of leaks. Is there any chance of a part 3 because that would be outstanding. The format works really well, fingers crossed for some more.
