The use of the term donk is so ridiculously overused online. It's getting pathetic. Some people cry donk when they lose with a hand that was better pre-flop and you called their raise pre-flop. It seems like a vast majority of these people who cry "donk" don't know how to play poker post-flop, which in cash games is where most of your money making/saving opportunities come.
(Btw, I feel ya on that beat. I WAS on ultimate bet and lost with quads... unfortunately they were 7's, and not the required 8's or better. Flop 778, I bet, villian called. Turn hits 8, I check acting weak because I figured he had an 8 here... he moves all in, I call instantly. He turns over K8, I show my quad 7's, river hits an 8. I was so ticked... but I didn't call the guy a donk because if I were him in that situation, I would have more than likely played it the same way since you are rarely up against quads when you have a full house.) |
