JJ overpair in a pretty big pot

Villain is 60/21/1.14 over 90 hands. Calls everything preflop but not too crazy post-flop. Definately haven't seen him get his whole stack in yet. I've been aggressive in position against him and am starting to get the feeling he's a little irritated. He's starting to call a little lighter etc. He hasn't 3-bet me preflop yet but this might be the first time he's had a chance as well with me being on his direct left.

Is this a hero call or super standard call?

What the heck does he mini raise preflop here with? Probably 10s, Qs, Ks or As. Im folding the turn.

tough, I think this a fold myself
(strong line low af)

pfr is 4 but u calling 3 to make 6

ur decision is on the flop

looks like a fold

This is a very strong line from a donk. I fold the flop. I also reraise PF btw

Opp bet 6 plus his blind = 7 - 4pfr from hero = 3 to call.

looks like QQ-AA given flop action. im not calling flop unless im happy about it and stack off on turn

"Opp bet 6 plus his blind = 7 - 4pfr from hero = 3 to call."

lol- thx for that

I've found my biggest leak - I can't do basic arithmetic (not sure I can spell it either.)

I just really found this line so bluffy. Yeah he's a donk so of course he's not going to make smart bet sizes. The reason I decided to call is it was weird for him to give up once the flop comes after he has 3-bet preflop. Then suddenly he's interested again once the other guy folds and the flop is HU between him and myself. That's the main reason I decided this was more likely a bluff than a bad line with a good hand.

Does that sound like good reasning or was I just talking myself into having an excuse to call?

fyp

pretty standard flop fold against a passive donk. I also like the idea of a 4bet (if you can really call it that) pre since he only minraised.

This is where you made your excuse to call. I just don't think it's a good one. You're giving him too much credit for good adjustment, without actually seeing any evidence of it, and then getting into a bad spot with a bad assumption based on adjustments he isn't making.
