My stack is short because the auto-reload function missed a step.

Villain is total donk, running 40/4-ish over ~100 hands. Comments appreciated on all streets...

I play lowest stakes atm (NL2), but I think villain's playing style from NL2 up to NL20 is bassically pretty same and usually when I face min-raise PF it indicates small pp's. Villains min raise on turn from my playing experience pretty much is very strong hand and I wouldn't be surprised to see here 55, 77 or 22. If it's 55 we are ahead, if it's 77 or 22 we are drawing dead. Is there any more reads? He raises only 4% PF, does he always min-raises? This is very important read, cuz I see so many villains min-raise PF their small pp's and raises more or even raises 25BB with absolute monsters.

I cannot help calling here although I am afraid we are beat like 85% of the time.

I read the title of the thread and said "no."

Then I read the thread and I say "no."

Oh, and if you filled up, c/r this river rather than bet it out, IMO. (Or just shove 'em in... at 10NL they prob. can't lay down a straight)

I think it is a fold. Villain checks behind anything but the straight here. VPIP of 40 lets me know he is playing plenty of draw hand 67, 78 etc. And his PFR of 4% probably indicates a loose passive player. Probably looking to set up a check raise on the flop rather than leading out, checking and calling the turn knowing he will stack off if I fill up on the river, but folding to any real bet on a blank river.

Just out of curiosity what did you do, I know it shouldn't matter but I like seeing results.
