Message: [QUOTE="gryphon3005, post: 5487649, member: 358021"] Great post. What I got out of this post was the sense that becoming a donk led to a sense of freedom at the tables....playing without stress. I think being able to switch into "donk mode" would be a valuable tool for tournament players. When I recall some of the tournaments where I made it to the money with a big enough stack to make a run all the way to the final table I remember I didn't do it without some LAG play. I certainly acted like a donk at times but by mixing things up and throwing people off I won some pots. The big thing for me, though, was a feeling of relaxing when I decided to go ahead and loosen up. As the stress meter went down I found the freedom to make some plays I would not have made early in the tournament. So donking is a strategy....who knew. [/QUOTE]
