Too many donkeys out there

[bostonfan1977]

Why must idiots insist on playing hands that have no business even puttin a .05

[furlano62]

i wonder the same thing all the time. i think it is the fact that it is only .05 i wonder sometimes if i played bigger limits there would be less idiots but i found out that there still are just richer.

Lol, as annoying as it is sometimes, just be happy that there are fish at the tables playing like morons. After all, in the long run you'll be making profit from those donks.

I think it's better to be playing against the donkey than being him.

Very true. This is one of my favorite quotes from the Rounders movie:

Listen, here's the thing. If you can't spot the sucker in the first half hour at the table, then you ARE the sucker. - Mike McDermott (Matt Damon)

Always beware the DONKEY!

[fleabit1]

He going totsuck out way tooo often for my liking!...

[IFixlexus]

I have been that sucker a time or two in my life. I can kind of tell when I'm over matched though, just fold everything and leave when the blinds hit me!

[mike_balkcom]

[HeyKidMove]

Personally, I'm more than happy to be playing at a table full of donks. After all, if you put it in with the better hand, you're gonna win more than the donkey.

[grndizzle]

i love playin against people that will chase everything. they will beat you sometimes but in the long run you will prevail!

[Hud_P39]

Technically you are de donk in the second hand
On the river, you should not have pushed all-in with that tripped board, coz your all-in is called only if your hand is behind...
You should have flat called his bet...

[nagorb24]

this is true

[Vito_Nuccio]

You will see fish and Donks at all levels. Give them some chips when they suck out because in the long run you will receive more from them for your better play. As you progress up the ladder of poker stakes, the donks are fewer and farther between, but they are there and always will be. Just take their money and go after the next one.........

[freiaaron]

IF you got a big enough bankroll donks are your friend if your playin really short they might get you into some trouble calling when they shouldnt
