A donkey at your table in a cash game is an invaluable asset. Do not berate them because of their nature for they will cease to feed you. In the long run, who do you want calling your bets: the skilled player who plays correctly, or the unschooled unthinking donkey who plays incorrectly.

well it may sound strange but i am a very spritual person and have something that if other people lie to me i can feel it or if they are bragging up about something i know they are talking bullcrap,it is no joke wise people know this and sometimes when i have a hand i can feel if i win with it even a big suck-out hand and every time it happend 1 or 2 would go all in and come on with a hand like 10 4 you can't call 2 all-inners,right but every and i mean every time i would have played that hand i would win it 100% of the times and it are about 300 times now really difficult cause you don't play that kind of hands but he if i could win money with it i really should do it,but then i don't really play poker,and that is what i want. cause you get a lot of donkey calls then.....gr tim
