I have been called a donkey so many times it is not funny. I obviously know I am not. In my experience usually the person using the term is the donkey. I play a very LAG (loose aggressive) style of play. I play my position, I play my reads, I play my instincts, and I play my cards. Usually alomost in that order...lol....but because of my style of play being read based and position based a lot of time my line seems very unusual to a casual player at the table who only notices that he had pocket aces. And can not understand why I three bet him pre with a mid suited connecter of some sort and then bam I nail the flop. Of course I get berated because he had AA. So I think alot of time the word is way over used and most of the time used very incorrectly. Simply put a "donkey" is someone who just does not understand basic ABC poker. My $0.02.
