Poker donkeys would make a great name for a poker site! Hell i'd join poker donkeys if it had a £100 no deposit offer. don't think they would be doing bad beat jackpots though

Good one !
I think even with 100£ id have to concider to join the site. I think that it is really MINT and Profitable to have like 1-2 donks in 6 seater cashtable, but if there are 5 donks +you then it is going to be definately -EV and pointless even to try to win something

they all the days make angry as because they play on every sites and just rigged as so they dont play they only hope for luck and so many times they win i have AA and put all in he call me 5-9 its terrible because pot off bank was about 500 000 we are at the end off tour only about 80 left was and flop gives 9 Q 2 turn j river 9 and i was knocked out so the question if any clever player call with 5-9 my all in about 250 000 answer no only donkeys can
well of course we're all donks, but i'm not the donk that slowplays AA and then get mad for getting beat with 72 from BB, because he hits on flop. don't slowplay AA
I have a real hate on for donkeys right now. It seems that they have come out if force @ FTP with the fast $50 and $100 reload bonus' going on @ the same time. Just nlast night I lost a buy in +a little to one. He's UTG2, I'm MP2 with KK. Knowing that the tables looser than usual, I raise 7x BB. Folds around to donkey who calls. Flop comes J-7-5 rainbow. He checks, I raise to the pot, he calls. Turn comes 10. He checks I raise All In (thinking he should fold anything but the nuts), but he calls????? Shows a 4-5os so he's got bottom pr with 3 over cards to my cowboys. RIVER comes a 5 to set. Sick Donkey sick. Bottom line was he should never have called that big of a preflp raise UTG with that rag. That's just the one I remember, but that's been going on a lot the last week and my bankroll''s starting to become a concern because of s**t like that. I don't mind losing to some one who had a legitimate reason to call from that position, but to repeatedly lose to some ass who doesn't know what the fold feature is is another indeed.

things can happen in poker, catching some bad beats is just part of the game, but if you get your chips in with the better hand then you did everything right.

Human nature, I guess. I always remember how I got booted from a tournament, but never how I won anything...weird. As long as you realize that the bad beats are compensated by good luck as well (which we forget INSTANTLY), the bad beats won't hit you so hard. that's my take on the bad beat thing. Keep me pissed off for minutes, but never longer.

they are great to double up through but when they get lucky its sickening, had a guy the other day at the table beating a guys Ks with 72 he called the raise and got lucky and he defended it like like the guy was crazy for playing his Ks lol i just said i see ur point for playing the 72 it was suited after all

Posted by 123yourgone: lol that's very true. poker players tend to remember the hands they lost by a bad beat.and dont remember the bad beats they give out
donks make you wanna think evil things, i know exactly what you mean they dont deserve to win, and their bad play gets rewarded way too often! i totally aggree

Haha, I agree with most of the comments. As some have said in other forums and threads, a great superpower to have would be to be able to grab people through the internet and punch them in their golden bags
