The poker donkey has replaced the poker
fish. In the olden days of poker (before 1999) the bad players were called
fish. Now a days they are called a donkey.
A poker donkey is a bad player, or is he? A poker donkey is a gambler. Not just any old gambler though. The poker donkey
will hit their gut shot straight, seven high flush, and miracle full-house after a fourth street flush. The poker donkey is a terrible gambler. The poker donkey
will gamble with incorrect odds and hit their miracle card.
A poker donkey does not know any better. Donkeys like to play and they
will get paid at your expense. You can expect to find a poker donkey at the lower limits of poker. Usually they
will go on good runs of cards. The donkey
will run so good that they
will be mistaken that they are actually good at poker and berate other players to their fine playing skills.
But, like all donkeys they finally end up on the rail watching other donkeys play. The poker donkey
will often be mad and sulk and blame the cards for the absolute terrible run of bad fortune. It is only then that the poker donkey
will dig deep to gain knowledge of the game.
Whether you are playing poker online, playing a live poker tournament or playing poker in a casino watch out. There just
may be a poker donkey sitting next to you.
That guy is a fucking poker
donkey. If I ever play cards like those, I'd be a
donkey. You won that hand playing like a
donkey.
