Re: What is a \"donkbet\"?
These sorts of standard terms for common lines need to be compiled and stickied somewhere.
Stop 'n go is as described above -- it's a bet after the player bet-called the previous street. A donk bet is a bet after the player check-called the previous street. Most common situation is...
PF:
EP limper, MP limper, you raise on button, blinds fold and limpers call.
Flop:
Limpers check to the raiser (you), you bet, they call.
Turn:
EP limper now bets.
I notice many more donkbets on the turn than the river. Donkbet is also referred to as a gaybet by some people, but not as much after the PC police jumped on people for it awhile back. I find no offense at the term "gaybet," but as discussed this weekend at Vegas, actually saying that someone gaybet you when discussing a hand in person sounds pretty retarded.
