This could be just top pair. I would fire out $24 on the river.
Never bet on a white man in the heavyweight division!

ew I check call something reasonable. Betting opens up bluff raises which we have to fold to. Fold to big bets.
My sig is too much for you to handle.

Only if villain is an idiot bluffer am I afraid of getting raised by worse.

I think I check/call most of the time since most bets from him is basically 9 or flush or bluff. Stats are important though. 'Loose donk' is ambiguous.

Well I expect a bluff bet tonsss more than a bluff raise. And stats are important despite amount of hands as long as you include hand number. The better I get with HUD stats the more I understand their evolution. May only be 20 hands, but a 40/20/10 will settle on a much more laggy/manaical side than a 40/5/.5 will.

I would bet 20. If You check and he has top pair he will probably check. If you check and he has nothing he will bet. If you check and he has a strong hand he will bet. But if you bet and he has you beat he will probably raise you strong you can fold. If he has top pair he will call he has been calling all the way. I don't like to give up the pot by checking.
Because if he has missed his hand he is going to certainly take a stab at it now that you have shown weakness. Thats why playing from the SB stinks.
