this is pure donkstyle. do you really think hes a good player because you have seen him winning once? i have seen players that pushed all-in every hand and have won 5 or 6 stacks in a minute before they left the table. its just about luck if yo play like this AND most of the times these players will lose, but nobody recognizes because there is nothing spectacular about a guy losing money while playing donkeystyle

You need to know a lot about cards statistics to play that way. That can be a good thing to train at low levels. Drawing an Ace at flop have so many probabilities as drawing a 7, like AK to 72. But, if none of them appears, AK will always win to 72, so why play it? If you are good on the bets, and you have what it takes to put somenone who has AK, on the hand with nothing at the table, believing you are stronger, that is part of the game too. Every cards are good cards to players with great skill on betting!

Oh no. It's too risky to play with low cards. I think it will be a suicide move if you play with the low cards. In other words wasting money on poker. I never tried that.

well, my first note on him was "donk, raise high - hes gonna call with any 2 cards", after a while i changed it to "watch out, this guy is dangerous" lol. ive been playin on 2 tables with him. if it was only 1-2 hands he won, then i wouldnt even mention it or even make a thread to see the resonance. half of the table lost their stack to him.

i think you didnt get it. none says to go all-in with such cards, or to call with underpair or whatever.
I never tried that.
