- Just as the word 'donkey' can be used to reference a stupid person in everyday life, it also has this basic meaning in poker. Of course, in poker, the term is not nearly as endearing as it is away from the felt. You Should Also Know.
- Terms. Donkey; Donkey. In poker, a donkey is an unskilled or 'bad' player who often puts his chips at risks. A donkey will often play a very loose style of poker.
In poker, a fish is the sucker at the table. Also known as a “donkey,” or “live one.” It’s a derogatory term for someone who is not very good at poker. While there is no official definition of a poker “fish” in the dictionary, it’s widely accepted in poker circles that the fish at the table is the player who is playing very poorly.
What is a Poker Donkey?
Have you ever been called a donkey at the table? A donkey is a pejorative term loosely used to describe a bad poker player. If you’ve been called one before, it’s probably when you first started playing, barely knew the rules and were calling raises and post flop bets with trashy hands and getting lucky.
Basic Poker Terms
How Does a Donkey Play?
A donkey will usually play like a calling station. This means they will play lots of hands and typically be calling you down. This is irrespective of the strength of the hand. The result of this is that they will occasionally get lucky and outdraw your strong hands.
Example
It’s a no limit cash game with £1/£2 blinds. You open raise to £8 with As Ks from early position. It folds to the small blind who calls.
The flop comes Ac Jd 3s. He check calls your £12 bet. Turn is a 4d. The small blind check calls your £30 bet. The river comes a 9h. The small blind checks, you value bet £45 and the small blind calls and wins with 3h9h and wins with two pairs.
This is a typical donkey hand, your opponent has called every round of betting with a very weak hand, particularly on the turn with just bottom pair facing an early position raise and now a decent size turn bet, realistically beating nothing.
Donkey Poker Termo
Don’t Bash the Donkey’s, Feed Them
I know it’s tempting to criticise or give the “donkey” stick after you’ve lost the pot to a 3 9 suited but don’t! Don’t educate your opponents or let them know they are playing horribly. After all, these are the players that will make you money in the long run.
If you bash the donkey like a donkey pinata party game than they may not play again or worse, learn to play better! Phil Hellmuth is a poor role model in this respect as he will often bash a donkeybut he doesn’t care, a millionaire with revenue from advertising and getting paid to play on TV. You and I are not so lucky! Remember not to tap the glass next time you play. In fact, it’s better to pay the donkey compliments, feed them.

A poker donkey is a bad player, or is he? A poker donkey is a gambler. Not just any old gambler though. The poker donkey will hit their gut shot straight, seven high flush, and miracle full-house after a fourth street flush. The poker donkey is a terrible gambler. The poker donkey will gamble with incorrect odds and hit their miracle card.
A poker donkey does not know any better. Donkeys like to play and they will get paid at your expense. You can expect to find a poker donkey at the lower limits of poker. Usually they will go on good runs of cards. The donkey will run so good that they will be mistaken that they are actually good at poker and berate other players to their fine playing skills.
But, like all donkeys they finally end up on the rail watching other donkeys play. The poker donkey will often be mad and sulk and blame the cards for the absolute terrible run of bad fortune. It is only then that the poker donkey will dig deep to gain knowledge of the game.
Whether you are playing poker online, playing a live poker tournament or playing poker in a casino watch out. There just may be a poker donkey sitting next to you.
Donks will call any bet, to chase any draw, with any two cards.
Donks have a psychological problem, a gambling addiction.
For Donks, the adrenaline rush of taking huge risks is better than sex.
You might think if you put a donk all-in, or literally put a gun to their head they might fold?
Nope.
That would only make it more of a thrill for them to 'risk it all.'
A few things you can do to beat donks:
1. Defuse their 'thrill' reflex by keeping pots small and boring.
Resist the urge to bet big to 'protect' your hand. That's like waving a red cape at a bull in a china shop. Don't worry about giving away 'free cards.' It's only a free card if he would have folded.
2. Have a deep bankroll.
If possible, get some big corporation to stake your buy-ins.
You may have to wear a hat or Tshirt with their logo, and maybe pose for some promotional photos, but you'll never have to worry about being out of the action just because of suck-outs.
The real threat from donks is that they win YOUR money, then lose it to someone ELSE while you're broke.
The goal is to still be there to capitalize when this piece of filth's luck finally runs out.
3. Don't play micro stakes.
That's any Vegas NLHE cash game with a Big Blind LESS than $10, or tournament with a buy-in less than $500. While you might find a donk in any game, micro stakes are absolutely infested with them; and you just may as well go play Roulette.
