"Donk" is derived from the Latin "donkey" and means "to donk" or "to act as if one were a donkey." Donks typically spend their time at the various online "poker rooms." They may be found at any level of play.

"Donks" may be distinguished from your garden-variety online monkey based on how often they "colddonk" or "donkfend" or raise "under-the-donk" with any two sooted. The best defense one has against a "donk" is to post numerous bad-beat posts on a suitable "internet chat board" while making sure to emphasis the heinous nature of the "donkout."
