What do you guys think of my turn raise?
At first i thought it was a value raise, but then, i'll most likely fold everything i beat and not let him bluff me on river sometimes...
But then, his donk bet was too small to just call and let him draw if that's what he's doing !?

SB's line is really weird. I don't hate your turn raise. As played, I think it's fine overall.

what would you think of just calling turn bet, and value bet river big enough if most draw miss and get value out of some kind of K-x or any weird hands he's willing to pay off with?

The turn raise is fine, but I would make it bigger, to 8.50 for instance.
As played, you can either check-behind or valuebet smallish, like 1/3 pot to get value off his Kx, sometimes even Jx; depends on how stationy/fishy he is.
The small donk bet on this turn is usually some kind of a draw, probably with a pair, which will pay the raise happily.

You can make this play with even weaker hands like a good king for value, but then I would check-behind the river for free showdown.

Turn raise is fine. But I'd value bet the river after SB checks...perhaps 1/3 to 1/2 the pot.

Alright, thanks for the nice answers guys!
I was really thinking about value betting that river too, but i thought since he was pretty much a nice station, he'd call cbet with A high a lot there and i found my kicker just a lil too weak......

He ended up showing A-10
But I agree Kx is a way bigger part of his range and he'd definately call 1/3 value bet.
