    It's a donk bet, I almost always raise to 3/4 - full pot size and take it down.

    garbage. since he bet such a small portion of the pot, a 3x-4x raise will not be efficient. since pot is now 1760, make a raise proportional to that pot, something around 900-1100 and they will fold 80-95% of the time depending on your skills

    J10 or some other straight draw combo. trying to buy the turn for as cheap as possible. sick thing is he probably calls off his whole stack trying to catch it when you shove his min flop bet.

    I like the pre oak bluff. the lil min raise preflop they put you on aces every time. the post pine bluff works gooot to.

    Oak is a little more pricier...yet it is harder on the blades...if you're going to clear cut I suggest cedar

    Don't kbnow your stakes, but at lower strakes alot of guys will make this bet as a way of inducing a raise that they have every intention of calling. Doesn't mean they have anything or are chasing... but Supa Donk has it right they'll often chase you down with even you making a pot size raise here. (Let's assume $24 buy in or less- esp. at $10 or less)
