It’s simple mathematics!

The word “donk” has long been the number one go-to appellation for a certain kind of poker player: the bad kind.  No one wants to be one, many aren’t actually aware they are one.  Some throw around the term in the manner of an internet troll in online table chat, indiscriminately or perhaps using the term more to insult good players than actual bad ones, the bad ones often including said troll.

In recent days, some concerns have been raised that with the amount of information available about how to properly play this game and how easy it is to access, it has become prohibitively more difficult for anyone to make a real profit at poker.  For cash games, I really don’t see what they’re getting worked up about.  If you make plays with positive expected value, you’ll make a profit right?
