Donkeys with 48...

Lately I haven't been getting much action from the bad players, that all changed today there were so many absolute donkey players it was very satisfying to see. Unfortunately I only made a small profit, but there were some horrific beats and it is easy to see how a few hundred profit should be over a thousand. First out we had some donkey called chess1956, I played him in a few low stake games and comprehensively beat him. He moves up with his life savings and sits in a $300 game. Obviously I get the money in as an 80% favourite and lose to a miracle river. He ends up winning and in chat says how great he is and how he is up on the day, the bottom line is the day is young and noway can someone playing so bad end up in profit. Well here is how he ended up today:

Well played that donk, here are a few disgusting hands involving him to get some kind of idea as to how bad he is...

Now a quick review of the hands above:

Hand one the blinds are low and he calls off with an underpair to the ace, in this spot it will be good maybe one in twenty times. Outrageous call.

Hand two from bad play he has wasted almost half his stack, again the blinds are low and he puts it all in with 8 hi preflop? Maybe the worst play of all time preflop.

Hand three raising preflop out of position with the nut low, two three offsuit. How can anyone even try and put into words how bad this is.

Hand four awful call.

Hand five, the flop is king hi and you cant fold a pair of tens in omaha? Only about twenty hands that beat you. Just so so so so so bad.

Well anyways end up around evens now at time of writing. However break even days are fine as even if I break evens from rakeback and bonuses etc I still get around £400 a day. If I played daily and broke evens that would be £100,000 on the year! Unlike the donks like Chess1956 who boast when they suckout in one game after going all in with 48! Still I don't mind who I win against and who I lose against so long as I end up in profit. A few more weird plays from donks today:

Considering some of the bad beats a break even day is fine, let me add a funny screenshot from the donk of the day who bragged when he was up a few pennies and then ended up losing his life savings the peasant (click on image to enlarge and see idiots chat who was singing as he was up around £20 which didn't last too long!)...





Slight update before sleep got a few more games in and ended day up £800
