    Default I think I'm screwing these spots up

    Villain is a 20/5 donk.

    PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $2 BB (6 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

    SB ($487.35)
    BB ($281.20)
    UTG ($183)
    Hero ($203)
    CO ($197.95)
    Button ($115.40)

    Preflop: Hero is MP with Q, Q.
    1 fold, Hero raises to $8, CO calls $8, 2 folds, BB calls $6.

    Flop: ($25) 3, 4, 5 (3 players)
    BB checks, Hero bets $14, CO raises to $28, BB folds, Hero ??

    I'd just call and see what's up.

    Between the value of seeing a turn card and his bet size I think we get a lot of great information before committing to the pot.

    I had a hand like this today, same situation and board but I only had AQ. I folded to the mini-raise and he showed 87. If he's a donk like you said he could have a whole bunch of hands that you beat. I think raising is your only option here.

    This is what I have always done in the past. This is also what I did here. He showed 67 for the flopped nuts. Sorry for the simple question, but with the whole downswing thing, I am starting to question everything.

    the flopped nuts is part of his range but so is TT-66, 65, 6x, a FD... well you get the point.
