    its best to have a plan before you do anything

    if you just play based on what happens you will end up getting lost. Try to have a plan. Sometimes the best way to play it is str8 forward.

    just lead lead, then check call river if its scary. CUz on river you either ahead and he folding or he ahead and he gonna raise.

    check calling river also induces him to bluff as well

    I love donk leading a set- but I wouldn't do it on this board.

    By donk leading, you want to rep a flush draw or weak broadway pair (an ace on board is great). None of those exist here.

    And if you do donk lead this board, just continue to bet. If he has a piece, he'll stay and you'll get value. If not, he simply folds. You lost alot of value taking this line and not seeing it through.

    I raise pre then continue to fire with sets all day. They usually disrespect it and I get their chips.
