00:00what's up guys it's doodoo poker back for another video today we're gonna be talking about donking
00:09verse donks more specifically donking on the river when a fish double barrels okay now I'm
00:20gonna show you this hand and then we're gonna go through it okay so our opponent is a fish
00:27he's on the button okay we're in the small blind remember you only play GTO preflop against GTO
00:34ranges we want to play pots against the fish so you expand your range preflop okay so he opens
00:43oops let's go back to the beginning he opens 2.4x I decide to call in a small blind okay now it's a
00:52little loose but we know how fish play post flop so it will be a positive EV call okay so on the flop
01:00he bets small now
01:04you have an over card and two backdoor draws with the backdoor flush draw and the backdoor
01:12straight draw so you always call flop here okay now on the turn we pick up an open ender okay now
01:24when he bets turn you always call there's a couple reasons why he's gonna have a lot of ace x in his
01:32range so he's gonna have reverse implied odds on the two also this is what this video is about
01:38we want to donk flops that we miss okay because we know MDA in this spot all right so watch so here
01:48he bets right what did he bet half pot again classic fish sizing half pot flop half pot turn
01:54okay okay so we call now now on the river
02:00i bet half pot okay because i want to go over this hand and show you why i play this this way okay so
02:12let's go over data okay what do we know about fish well we know on the flop fish c bet around gto
02:21percentages okay so on the flop you can play gto ish now on the turn what do we know about turns
02:30well we know that fish double barrel too much okay they double barrel too much this leaves
02:40their range too weak on the river how do we exploit a weak range we donk into a weak range okay so he's
02:50too weak on the turn he's double barreling too often all right so we know from data that
02:58if i bet 50 what is mdf versus bet 50 well
03:08we know we need him to fold 33 of the time right i'm betting 50 i'm risking 50
03:16to win 150 okay so we need him to fold 33 of the time okay now we know from mda
03:27across all board textures that they fold 43 to a dog so we know there's a 10 overlay okay
03:36so what you do here is you call flops and turns and then you donk rivers when you miss now if we had
03:46hit this river we would check to him and check raise this brings me to another point you never
03:52bluff raise a fish in a triple barrel line mda principle let's say i missed let's say i decided to
04:00check here if he bets you never ever check raise ever because when we look at folding frequencies
04:06we see they defend too much okay they're going to call you they're betting merged and they're going
04:14to call you okay that's why we actually value bet thinner okay so as an exploit for someone who doesn't
04:24fold to a check raise we put king jack ace jack all the jack x in the check raise line for thin value
04:33because we know they bet merged okay you will not learn this in a solver a solver cannot help you okay
04:40so what you do is when you have air you call flop call turn and then you donk river okay because we know
04:47they fold 43 of the time and if you bet 50 alpha is 33 so you have a 10 overlay okay secondly
04:57do not mda principle verse fish do not check raise bluff versus a triple barrel line in the single
05:04race pot same thing in the three bet pot by the way but we're talking about single race pots do not
05:08triple uh bluff raise fish ever okay very big punt what you do do is you
05:16you value bet thinner okay so you put all your jack x in the check raise line okay so if i decided
05:25to check with like ace jack or king jack and he had bet i always jam okay so these are two important
05:31exploits okay so in game in game call remember we don't play gto preflop versus fish he bets call
05:43and you always bet you always donk river here actually really big mistake to not donk here
05:48okay so try this in the future this is going to uh help you increase your win rate versus fish
05:56remember we want to donk versus fish on the river because there's an overfold we also never want to
06:03check raise bluff versus a triple barrel line because we know folding frequencies are too low they
06:09over defend but as an exploit we put all our thin value in the check raise line now i get to value
06:15bet thinner all right guys so i know this was a lot to take in hopefully uh i explained it correctly
06:22and please subscribe if you have not i will be making a new video every day fish play reg play
06:28everything under the sun and i will see you in the next video
