Can i get some advice about how to proceed with Donk betting when you have draws

This hand is an example of the situation. Although his stats say differently he was playing a lot of hands and assumed he was making a move

100nl 6max

Villain 55/7/1

Button ($53.79)
SB ($141.50)
Hero ($120.78)
UTG ($49.93)
MP ($97.77)
CO ($104.88)

Preflop: Hero is BB with Q

If I'm reading this right (again with the converter issues), you're only getting ~2.3:1 to call the shove, why call? Unless you figure both your overs are good here like all the time, I don't see this being a call. Not everyone is always "making a move" on you, it's ok to fold :p

Easy fold on the turn there. Stacking this guy off with an open ender...really?

Why are we donk betting again? Also, if he was making a move with AK, you realize you're still a big underdog right. Try to reserve your hero calls when you have like 2nd pair or something at least.

Agree...you have to fold when he makes that shove.

Figure your pot odds and make the correct play accordingly...the donk will eventually beat himself if you keep the odds in your favor.

I think you have to check the turn and hope his bet give you enough value to make the call. Just because he may be playing like a donk he's most likely got Q high beat here. Stacking off on the turn is pretty bad play, so his donk play got you so rattled that you donked your money off?
