Message: [QUOTE="IntenseHeat, post: 2001110, member: 92488"] Donkey (donk)- My understanding of the term donkey, has always been that is is a player that is too stubborn, like a donkey or mule, to lay down a hand when they should realize that they are beat. It not necassarily the hand that makes you a donkey, it's the way you play it. A donkey might call call a 3-bet with Q-Q (which is reasonable). But then refuse to lay down to a huge bet when the flop comes A-A-K, because he's too stubborn to admit that his Qs are probably beat. Monkey (monk)- This is a term I use to refer to individuals who thrown chips around like a zoo monkey throwing crap for his own amusement. For example, the guy who calls my pre-flop raise, check/calls when the flop comes A-4-8, check/calls when the K hits on the turn, then shoves all-in on the river when a 2 hits. Of course when I call this freaking idiot with A-K, he shows 9-6 offsuit. [/QUOTE]
