    cheers YB i respect that. the reasons for it the donk bet out i  put on some sort of draw Straight or flush, then with the min re-raise i thought they could have a 9. I wont put up results so soon as i am seeing whether its only me who folds here, im such a nit.....  ;)

    The donk lead is a queen, the over-raise is a draw, get it in.

    they could have a 9 but most times they won't, just get stacks in because you're massively ahead of both of their ranges.

    A9 vs Q10 or on them lines i dont think its a terrible fold because when these passive fish start betting they have it, yeah your ahead of their range pf but thats about it, if you get it in you would need the donker to come along

    This is basically still 4NL in essence and from I gathered most bad players ONLY raise with the goods and the minraise is so so so so so bloody horrible in everyway as it leaves 7p behind he really wants a call.

    The bet from x is just some weakish Q imo so I'd say it's best sticking it in and trying to win what he has left behind as xx can't hurt you.

    Do you mean only bad players raise with a 9 here, or it is bad for Young_Gun because they have raised??

    I hope your not saying he is bad if hes raising with a 9

    No I mean MOST bad players just call call call and when they raise they usually have something.

    Here the guy has 7p behind so should have went all in but because he's BAD imo he just minraises as he doesn't undertand the game yet to realise it's all going in anyway but thinks oooh I'll just minraise he he he. Raising with the 9 is ok but with his stack it's just an all in.

    you wouldnt believe ive seen people do this then fold to a re-raise would you?

    Yea as said i dont think the fold is that bad tbh, At best we're against a Q and a draw. What ive not seen anyone saying is someone would raise to protect a 9 against a draw, or even donk bet a 9 for that reason icase the PFR doesnt make a c-bet?

    Person who donk bet had Q10, other person had 45 suited. so i was ahead when it went in but 45 suited hit flush, so bad fold but good result

    even if the minraiser shows you 9x  the sidepot with the original donk bettor will be big enough to make a profit on the hand
