Line Between Donk And Genius

by Blake on July 20th, 2008

It’s a fine line between donk and genius. You make a marginal play and it works for you, you look like you could see the future, you make one and it goes wrong, you look like an idiot poker donk minbetting into a massive pot.

Daniel Negreanu tends to make a lot of weird looking plays but they all are usually based either on his ability to read beyond your average joe and his willingness to gamble it up when he needs to.

Here’s a clip from the World Poker Tour that’s about as perfect example of donk vs genius as you could ask for:

I really think Daniel was just gambling on the fact that he most likely had outs no matter what and if his opponent was bluffing, then he had the best hand, but overall, a marginal play that brings him out looking pretty on point.
