Just sat down at a 1c/2c table
flop % is around %60 ++ - very loose table
I don't have any solid reads or notes on opponents yet and this hand comes up.
What would you do?
i took a few minutes and finally made the decision....(click show results if you want to see them)

I probably would have played it the same. You can safely assume that he hit nothing on the flop. The flush draw on the turn would have made me a bit nervous...I would have had to take a moment to think about calling. But, like I said, I probably would have done the same, good or bad. :p

i put him on AKc but then again he probably would have pushed on the flop with a flush draw :p

Yeah, I hear you on that one. But...it's when I don't give them enough respect that it usually bites me in the arse! :D

Lead the turn. Yeah it's a scary card but you have no real idea where you're at if you check, and you can't automatically assume when a draw card hits that villain has completed his draw. If you're calling a push after checking anyway, why not bet out yourself?

Big overbets usually mean "I don't want to be called". I may call here expecting to be shown AcX/KcX pretty often (I haven't looked at the results yet), however it may also be reasonable to fold and see what he shows down after big overbets against others. If he is betting big with air you'll hopefully be able to find a better spot to play back before he goes busto, if he overbets with big hands you might be able to push him out of pots when he bets small, and so on.

Basically, I don't like getting into situations like this without reads, but the typical micro-donk is capable of pushing such a huge range of hands here I guess I could find a call if I looked hard enough.

Too bad it was a micro table. You only got a little over seven dollars on that hand. It's a great pot for a micro table though. Good play!
