I've quit 6 max and FR and back to my HU game and I'm really really rusty... I mean, my line sort of sucks and the whole hand sucks... any suggestions?

I bluffed him a buyin early, but have regained the momentum. He's not horrible, but pretty close... From Italy.

i think this is ok. turn may be a raise depending on villain, but it's definitely not played horribly imo.

lol from Italy.

Well they don't fold toppair and his turndonk looks alot like A/x that likes to get to showdown cheaply to me. I raise the turn because the 3 is a good card and we very often have the best hand here. As played i raise the river to $80 because i'm not buying his i have a flush line.

I think your biggest mistake was no raising the turn.

yeah i'd raise turn. nothing got there and he's doing that silly gay donk bet which is like "can we get to the river cheaply honey pie?" he's not going to play a better hand that way, especially since he probably expects you to bet the turn. ime. i've yet to see anyone donk bet there with a better hand. maybe they do at $5knl.
