This was a very strange hand and I was not sure whether to call or fold the river. When we are heads up I am not really giving him a strong range when he min raises pre. I call his flop bet with my backdoor equity and to see if he continues on the turn when he checks turn I am fairly confident, I can't see him check calling turn with AK, so I am now supposing he has a hand like 99 or A

10

or something like that. He completely took me by surprise when he donk shoved a 6

river, I considered again whether he would take this line with AK but I don't believe it. 8

9

crossed my mind but it's unlikely he is min raising to 10c pre. I block hands like K

J

and he would most likely bet again on the turn instead of check calling, although I have seen fish start check calling their top pair. In the past I have also seen donk shoves like this with TT or 99 because they are too stubborn to fold but with the odds I was getting, i elected to fold, although i was VERY close to calling. I kind of just let the clock run down while I was thinking and it auto folded. In hindsight, Daniel Negraunu once said, 'when something doesn't make sense, i call' so I'm not sure what to make of this hand. I would love some advice and feedback! Much appreciated guys <3
