DONKEYS ALWAYS DRAW, BITH!

It is jargon to represent a bad player -- specifically ones who chase wildly unprofitable draws.

That is a donkbet. The key difference between that and a stop-and-go is that a stop-and-go comes from someone who had shown aggression on a previous street, but slowed down to your increased agression, only to floor it again on the next card. A donkbet is just someone going call/call/call/call then bets out on a random turn/river card, with no previous aggression.

[/ QUOTE ]I've only got 25 hands on you, but I've got you winning $13 for 52BB/100. And it turns out that $3.50 of that I gave to you. Now, how did that happen? He-Haw.
