Yea, it's "leading" not donk-betting. "Donk-betting" naturally has a negative connotation which actually could make someone not employ this play in their arsenal.
I actually discovered leading in PLO. I made a similar "donk-bet" post over in another forum and a higher-stakes player told me that I would become a much better player the mintue I starting realizing I was "leading" and not "donk-betting". It's funny that it's just semantics, but he was totally right, leading is a necessary form of balance and one that should be used in many of the situation as described by OP. It's a form of exploitation too, you have to first determine your opponents HU cbetting tendencies, but after you do you can decide if it's better to c/c, c/r, or lead at the pot.
BTW, ZeroSkill, nice posts as usual.
