Is there any merits in donking 3b pots? If so what range should u do it with? Against whom? And board texture? and your perceived image?

I never do it...but it's something to think about.

Anyone ever do it?

I really can't think of any situations that is profitable for donking 3bet pots, either gay donk (1/3 psb) or a strong donk (3/4 to pot)

thoughts reefy & co??

eh I have a limited sample but it def seems to get cred / played at against straight up for the most part. People just really don't expect it and I think it flusters them a lot unless they have a big hand.

need more discussion on this subject! like what spots would be good to do it

on really drawy boards a donk would appear to be a hand that intends to bet-3bet (assuming you're both regs) and thus be given cred and also played str8 up against

been thinking about doing it from CO vs aggro 3betting monkey btn with monsters on dry flops.

ie:
hero in co with AA/KK/QQ

all folds to hero raise to 6
monkey btn 3bets to 20

hero calls.

flop: 2 6 10 rainbow. (pot 43)
hero donks 18.

if raised i probably just flat and re-gaydonk any turn

thoughts?

I'd rather C/R flop in those spots mentioned above. They'll stack off much more lite. When donked into like Rika said, easy for them to just flat.
