  1. Mastering Donk Betting THE DO’S AND DON’TS FOR EVERY POKER PLAYER

  2. Reframing Donk Betting Once seen as a novice's mistake, donk betting—where a player out of position leads into the aggressor—has evolved into a strategic move. High-level players now use it to confuse and outplay opponents.

  3. Understanding Donk Bets Donk betting occurs when a player out of position bets into the pre-flop raiser on the flop, turn, or river. Though long mocked, it can serve as a tool to disrupt standard expectations and manipulate weaker players.

  4. When Should You Donk Bet? • Ideal scenarios for donk betting: • Facing weak or passive players • Multi-way pots to deny free cards • Exploiting opponents who fold easily to aggression • Use it when your hand has decent equity or to force folds from weaker holdings.

  5. Avoid Donk Betting When... • Avoid donk betting in these situations: • Facing skilled or aggressive players • Out of position against consistent c-bettors • Lacking clear information on opponents • Instead, opt for check-raises or traps to extract more value.

  6. Final Thoughts Donk betting has transitioned from a mistake to a tactical option. While risky, it can be highly rewarding in the right hands. Understand your table dynamics and use it sparingly to maximize value and create confusion.
