You dont say whether u have the Ks… is very important info. Overall I think it is a reasonable fold…tough spot.. but reasonable fold nonetheless less. I would probably call turn and fold to any to action on the river with no Ks in hand. Having the Ks would make it very interesting on river if 4th card flush came in.. but not sure what the right play is.
Have you plugged in ranges and calculated equity of you cards against their ranges? I plan to do it on my end but if you have already please share.I agree that with AK gere there is no other way this hand plays out.. but The question I have here is do you really want to get these kinda guys to fold or do you want to keep them in the pot? My experience is that to get such guys out of the pot you need to bet Insanely large amounts (10 -15 BB).. and if you do that regularly u certainly need to narrow down your range significantly or play a deeper stack. A 6-8 BB raise is mostly keeping such players in and technically that is great (you are getting your money in good).
I’m not sure balance is that important in a 1-2 game.. but I don’t think there are any other hands that you would donk with in this spot. So i think the GTO approach would be to check the flop and fire on all turns.. even if the turn is a diamond the pre flop action basically guarantees that there is only AKd (one combo) in his range where as your range might be wide enough to have KQd. Only way you can make money in this spot is if you let your opponent catch up… and checking the turn would keep your range wide and allow him to feel like he caught up on many turns.
