Which options do you prefer and why, if any?
1. I have a weak hand and he's probably outflopped me. I only have few outs to improve, the board is somewhat connected and the pot is small. The risk/reward is not worth it. So I fold and wait for a better spot.
2. I have a weak hand. However, his weak donkbet feels like a probing/blocking bet, telling me he has connected with the flop but doesn't want to play a big pot. If I threaten him with a big pot, he'll probably fold his better but weak hand. So I raise hoping for a fold and shutdown if called.
3. You can make a case for both 1. and 2.
4. None of the above. What I'd do is....
