Ponker Donkey... Good or Bad

Do you play online poker?  Have you ever been called a Donkey and wasn't sure why or what it was supposed to mean, well a Donkey in poker is known for playing completely unpredictably and sometimes against the odds.  So if you have been called a Donkey it's not exactly a bad thing, sometimes when I'm playing somewhere new I will act as if I have no clue or will play a little weirdly myself.

But there are benefits to this as the competition is now on their toes wondering if you really did catch your card or what.  So be a Donkey if you want to since it makes it difficult for your opponents to read you.  Since a lot of players are now playing this way businesses are popping up around the globe to cater to it.

A company in Florida is now designing appropriate appeal and says that, "In real life and in poker, donkeys are stubborn. In the realm of poker, though, they refuse to fold bad cards and deliver powerful kicks when they win on the river with any two cards. Somehow or another, the poker donkey will gamble against ridiculous odds and still occasionally hit the miracle card, bringing great frustration to others. Some players have made donkey their style of play, often confounding their opponents."

Now players at Full Tilt Poker can get a Donkey avator and other companies such as DonkeyGear.net offer comical tshirts and baseball caps.  Donkey Gear has just launched online shopping for  their products and was formed by a group of poker fanatics to provide other players with fashionable fun poker apparel and accessories.
