Default I found this hilarious.

Ok, the hand itself is nothing special, apart from how the other guy played it (as in horribly) but regardless, the ending was hilarious. I can't post a hand history because I'm at work, but I'll go through it quickly:

NL100, I'm in middle position with KK. I'm the first in the pot, bet 4xBB, the very next guy raises to $10. This guy was extremely tight, and very aggressive, so I just decided to call, because his style of play led me to thinking he might very well be holding aces.

The flop came 5 K 5 rainbow, and I decided to naturally check it to him, given his aggressive tendencies. To my surprise, he checked behind me. The turn was a Q, and I decided to check my fh one more time, I was sure he will bet by now. Sure enough, he bet $20, and I min check-raised making it $40 total. He thought a long time, then shoved his remaining $80 or so in the middle, I insta called. He showed JJ.

He was naturally drawing dead, and after the hand, he went berserk on the chat, starting with "omg... just my luck" "you DONK" to which I had to reply with a question mark, he then went "you f-ing fish! How can you check that to me?" "You need to bet that", and then my favorite part: he said "just my damn luck, your KK cracked my aces!!!" I replied "what?" and he continues ranting and raving "my aces have been cracked 4 times today". So now someone else on the table typed "hey, you do realize that we all saw your cards when you were all in?" "How is JJ turned into AA?" Almost immediately he left the table...

I dunno, I was laughing my ass off over this. Either the guy was a moron, or a moron and a damn bad lier...

Heh. I had someone call me a donk the other day for playing top set (44 against his 65 on a flop of 432, river paired the board).

Default Forget Them

That is one reason I do not keep the chat window open, I would rather track stats and blinds. I also like the feature to disable chat (popup when chat window closed) from any player who is a knob. Then they can rant all they want and I do not have to see it. Let them cry, maybe they will tilt some more cash your way. This was an instance where the slow play worked to perfection, it did help flopping 2nd nuts (55 makes quads).

Once he raised 20 and you re-raised, did he even consider you to have one K? You did raise before the flop, he could have put you on AK, even then he was beat. That would have been more than enough to cover his JJ.

Take his cash and go make some more.

Later,

yep, from what I have seen, it is usually one of those "pot calling the kettle" situations, the real donks get pissed and name call the people they lose to more often than a non-donk would.
