 What is a donk bet ?
I saw somewhere in HEM that my donk bet % for one session was 91%. Granted, it was a somewhat short session, but I have never heard of this before. Can someone tell me what this is ?

how the hell can you spell quantathingy? It could work out when you shouldn't have been in a hand every time you go to showdown i.e. when the odds against you winning were greater than the reward offered.Your own HEM would have data on every hand of course. |

Very Very easily.... a donkbet is when a player leads out on the flop out of position (ie. you've called a preflop raiser while in the blinds... then you go and lead out on the flop... this is the definition of a 'donkbet'). The donkbet may have been named that because (imo) why would someone be leading out so often on the flop if they actually have a strong hand.... wouldn't they just check to the initial preflop raiser.. in hopes of at least taking down a c-bet from them?? (sometimes I'll donkbet.. but it's not a usual part of my game... ie. I might donkbet lead out for a weak-looking 1/3pot bet when I've flopped a set while in Blinds.. especially if there's an A or K on the flop and I think this may have hit this particular Tag's likely holdings...

I could also post some articles on 'defending against the donkbet' if anyone's interested?
