I just started here yesterday but this is something I have absolutely noticed. Not only is it true, but also it appears to be highly recommended to donk, at least if you are going to assume that the tracking metrics provide accurate feedback on how to play. In particular, my general view is that if I'm the preflop raiser I will tend to lead out, but if I'm not the preflop raiser I will tend to check to the raiser. Of course not always in either case, but in general.

Donk betting sngs is usually bad if fewer than 6 players at the table, because of pot control. Donk betting cash all depends on the stakes (higher the stakes don't do it). Donk betting tournaments isn't bad or good all depends on the situation. In tournaments open limp you need to know hand ranges to open limp and from what positions. If another player is the aggressor and you just passively call, coming along for the next street, then you suddenly lead out for a bet, that bet is known as a donk bet. Give Me An Example (Or Two).

Now, leading out when you weren't the preflop raiser is the definition of 'donk' and fair or not it is a pejorative. In my view, it's not always bad, but 'donking' isn't something I'm particularly looking to increase in my game. Moreover, it isn't something anyone, say Dan Harrington or Doug Polk, is particularly advising I add to my game. Yet, if you aren't donking, then you are checking whenever you were not the raiser. And if your computer opponent does like to donk, then even when you were the raiser the action has often been taken before it gets to you.

This play is referred to as a donk bet because for the most part, bad players use donk bets seemingly randomly. But if used with a well-balanced range or a range designed to exploit the defender. In poker, donk betting refers to betting without initiative. In other words, you did not make the last bet or raise during the previous betting round. Typically, this is done when out of position in the hand and can be quite an effective weapon for stealing pots from nitty players, especially on low or paired flops as a bluff, since it’s.

In poker, a 'donk bet' is an out-of-position bet, usually small in size, that is made post-flop by a player that is usually: 1) inferior in skill 2) not the pre-flop aggressor For instance, let's say that a player in a $1/$2 cash game in early position raises pre-flop to $10.

I would say in my real-life games I am the pre-flop raiser more often than not. This gives me the chance to be the on-flop bettor more often than not. And my opponents don't donk a huge amount, meaning the action isn't taken from me too often. Against the AI here, none of this is true. Meanwhile, the recommended stat line appears to be to have a bet/raise: call ratio between 1.7 and 3.5. I would agree with the low end of that range in the live games I play, but to get to the high end of it seems like you'd be giving away money to trappers. Meanwhile, against the AI here, which likes to bet out and also likes to raise, you'd have to glue down the raise button to get to 3.5 times more often than the AI.

So, in short, yeah, a lot of donking, and it has a lot of follow-on impact.
