Thanks bikesm maybe .55 on a board like this?

I'd really like to stay on this Donking subject, it's important. especially in conjunction w/ this weeks bluffing article. Let's take a gander at this hand....

Pre: I could of 3b for sure, but i was implementing this weeks strat.

Flop. Since villain isn't a total fish i decide i can go ahead and bluff (semi-bluff) here. if my donk was a pure bluff I'd need to get a fold 33% Of the time.

I know this is the first time he's seen me donk, even if he thinks it's FOS i wou;d think he would have a hard time raising me here.

Good donk Semi- bluff
