5NLz, Nasty spot with top 2
I was so stunned by this move. What calls my turn overbet and then donk-jams this particular river? Do they do this with enough missed FD's to call this off?

Villain flats from the SB, which gives me a reason to suspect them being a bit fishy. Was there a good reason for them to do this? Was BB a passive fish?
SB's PF range probably consists of SC's, and mainly low PP's.
I can see them calling the turn with a PP + GS or OESD, which get there on the river, either by rivering a set (river donkbet would be an overplay, but it's 5NL) or a straight.
I tend to believe big bets on the river at the micro's vs. a suspected fish.
I would fear the straight in this scenario
I could see a lot of 44, 99 or 9x suited spades here or maybe even A4ss. Large turn and river bets from micro players (especially ones who may be fishy such as this one) typically are value heavy.
As played villain almost always has a strong hand. Likely he hit a set or hit with A9/A4/89/97 suited combos.
Also, villains at that level usually never consider what the other player has and is betting what they have so it’s a fold.
