I was recently called a donk @ FT during a freeroll…um, hello, I’m playing a freeroll so it’s apparent I’m inexperienced? 
 
I had A.K off in early position so I min raised in case I wanted to get away from the hand…depending on the table action behind me.
 
OP min reraised from mid position & everyone else folded so it’s heads-up situation. Based on prior hands the OP played…I opted to just call. 
 
The flop = rainbow rag, rag, K….I bet & the OP min raised….thought about it & suspected the OP did not hit a set…so I just called. 
 
Turn = A, I checked (which I generally do when reraised on a prior street) & OP shoved all in….hmmm, why did OP over bet the pot…called since I had 2 pair + 4 outs for a full house with no potential straight or flush on the board -- OP had pocket 5s.
 
River = non-King face card & OP’s stack severely damaged…OP called me a donk.
 
Personally I do not like A.K…I have been knocked out of so many tourneys with this hand. With A.K I will call, raise or shove all in depending on position & tendencies of the table; I’m not yet disciplined enough to fold A.K pre flop though.
 
I’m thinking the OP would have called if I had shoved all in from the beginning & the results would have been the same…so I’m not seeing why I’m the donk…the OP chose an inopportune time to represent a big hand when I suspected the all in was a please-don’t-call bet (vs a have-the-nuts bet). Now if I had made the 2 pair with K.rag off…I would agree about the donk evaluation.
 
If there were a redo, I would play the hand the same.
