Wouldn’t it be fair to think (if you’re bryan) you’re only losing here to some combination of A4? I find it hard to think given flush/straight draws on flop, if Donna had 55 or 99 (flopped set) she would check flop and give 2 players a free chance to draw, and then check the turn again after Bryan showed strength.
I also doubt she would show up with 22 or 44. That would be a pretty loose flop call, and it’s possible she doesn’t even raise these hands given her poor preflop position.
I guess 44 is a longshot possibility?
Curoius to hear your thoughts.
The problem is the opponent may only call with better hands, even if there are not many of those in their range.
