Default Re: Donk, Donkey, and other uses of the word

[ QUOTE ]
Cardplayer columnist Thomas Thunder Keller devoted an article to the use of the word Donkey. This was several months ago. Also, you can hear some of the young tournament pros calling eachother donkeys on tv or in cardplayer video streams.

Its not a 2+2 thing, except in the small stakes forum a donk bet is when someone keeps leading at you on later streets after you raise them without once 3 betting you.

No what you are referring to is a "stop n go."

EXAMPLE STOP N GO: You open raise AK and BB calls.

FLOP: K [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] T [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 3 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]

BB bets, You raise, BB calls. or BB checks, you bet, BB raises, you 3bet BB calls.

But the turn will have to be a BB lead to make it a "stop n go."

TURN: K [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] T [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 3 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] J [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]

BB bets......



A "donk bet" is more passive and irrational than the "stop n go."


SAME PREFLOP SITUATION EXAMPLE: You open raise AK and BB calls.


FLOP: K [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] T [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 3 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]

BB checks, You bet, BB calls


TURN: K [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] T [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 3 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] J [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]


BB bets.....


And that my friend is a "donk bet." [img]/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img]
