I dont like the term "Donk Call" however, I often call when I know I am beat in a hand to see HOW YOU played what hand you had!
I understand the concept of PAYING for Information.
I resently was in a live cash game pot limit holdem and with in the space of 30 min, I was £800 down, I didn't panic I noticed that it was all going in one direction, ie to one player.
I noticed if I checked the turn or river I got a POT Raise off this guy...........

I am talking EVERY TIME I checked
So I started calling any 2 cards for £20.00 and seeing flops, My blind comes around ( He always Raised my blinds as well

)
I look down at 7

4

....

the pots large around 800 and I hit the flush on the flop..I checked...BINGO "
Mr Aggressive I play the Gypsy and Take all his money" FIRED in 800ish
I re-pot and cut a long story sort, he went home scarching his head with out his rent money
The Day after his asked me how I knew he didn't have a Flush............
I said you know "********" you have to work on that tell of your's...........
He's not played cash with me since.
