Inspired by a recent discussion with kdmeteor I decided to take a more systematic look at, what people are actually donk betting the flop with in the games, I play. A donk bet is leading into the previous street aggressor so in this case calling preflop out of position and then betting the flop, before the preflop aggressor has had a chance to act. I wanted to do this by running filters in my PT4 database, but while I can apply the nessesary filters, I can not see the hands but only my chips won or lost, so this does not work.
So instead I am going to do this the slow way and after each session look at "View todays hands", sort them after preflop action, and when that was "raise" find those hands, where the flop action was "call", since that means, there was a donk bet. As the last condition the hand then also need to get to showdown, because otherwise there is no reveal.
I will also exclude hands, where the opponent was sitting on a very short stack and did a stop-and-go, which means donk-jamming the flop after calling preflop. I will add the hands to this threat, as I collect them, until I feel, we have reached a conclusion. In this mornings short section of 197 hands this hand happened:
A small donk bet was a marginal top pair with a 12 out combodraw. Since the purpose of this threat is to investigate, what people are donk betting with on the flop, I will not dig deeper into the rest of the hand and analyse either the Villains or my own actions or dwell on the results.
