Default Re: I don\'t respond to donk bets well

and why is a 1/3 pot bet a donk bet?

[/ QUOTE ]

i raised preflop and now he's leading into me = donkbet

(it's a term, not a description per se)

[/ QUOTE ]

call me a donk but i do this ALL the time when i flop a good hand, particularly if i'm heads up and flop a set. i lead into the raiser with a 1/3-1/2 pot bet, get raised by TPTK or an overpair, and end up re-raising all-in with a hand that has him beat. i prefer this line vs. check-raises b/c check-raises send off too many warning signs.

like i said before, it's a description of the play, not the player. It's more of a limit thing. It's simply leading into the preflop raiser after just calling preflop.

In this particular spot, it happened to be a fantastic bet w/ whatever he had (though I'm quite sure it was accidental)
