Decided to donk here to protect my straight from his A6,A8,AT with the Ah or something like that.
Since he raised I decided to fold since I dont see him raising in that situation with nothing else but a straight.
Final Pot CO wins $1.57
Rake is $0.08

Nitty fold ?

Yeah can't fold to that size, I don't like the donk turn rather check my entire range again. Leading this makes our checking range pretty weak

You open yourself up to these situations by leading, which doesn't seem worth it. I'm just checking the turn. Your hand strenght is too awkward for leading I would say.

Yeah, agreed with Samu. I'd rather not lead here but if I was going to I'd want to be leading with a more polarized range of flushes and draws rather than made hands worse than flushes.

Also, make sure that you think about your entire range when you make a play like this. I tend to find that when I make plays like this where the spot just seems right for my exact hand that I often haven't thought much about what other hands should take that line.
