I am a donkey!

I meant to put this in the last post as it happened last night at one of the $1.10 DON turbos. Apparently I am a donkey! It was about the 3rd hand and I picked up K-K in middle position. 1st guy limps, 3rd guy limps, pot is $70 and this early in the tourney I don’t want to get cute. I raise to $200 because it just drives me crazy how many people will call with crappy A-x if you only raise it to $120 this early in these DON’s. Everyone folds as expected except guy in seat 3 calls. I think he has a crappy A-x or 2 face cards since he didn’t raise seat 1 earlier (probably sooted! LOL). The flop comes 2-5-8 rainbow and he puts in a whopping $60 raise into a $450 pot. I give him a “small” re-raise back to $500 and he promptly folds. I am content to end it right there and be happy with my 310 added chips and increase my stack 20%. What comes next kind of surprised me…in the chatbox..”DONKEY” from the guy in seat 3.. ??? WTF? Where in the world did that come from? I rarely ever type anything into the chatbox and normally mind my own business, but this irritated me for some reason (it was getting late and I was about done for the night so maybe I was just tired). I typed back “you’re an idiot for calling a big raise out of position with a crappy Ace”. I looked him up on top shark and his SNG stats were 45 games, -$8.00 profit for a whopping -16% ROI.. So I could see that he sucked and that he hadn’t played very long at Pokerstars at least. He comes back with an awesome response “you’re a donkey”..LOL… he’s so creative. I guess he was just trying to get under my skin and actually it worked because he did take my focus off the games some. I figured this was just going to go around and around, but I wanted to get my $.02 in so could get back to focusing on the games themselves. I typed his stats into the chatbox and said that he sucked but I hoped he kept signing up and that all the positive ROI players would be happy when he was around. Well that kind of shut him up..all he came back with was “we’ll see who’s here at the end of this table”. Oh brother like placing in one table makes a difference. I didn’t bother responding, but in the end he did make it there..I guess he got lucky..LOL.. one final note….I am a donkey!
