Donkaments: a tournament full of donks
Donk: a bad player

Hahahaha. Love the Broken Down English excerpt. Teddy “The Iceman” Monroe detailed a term called “flatbarreling” in his recent 2+2 podcast, but it sounded dumb and I’ve since removed it from my memory. Anyway, here are some terms…

Delayed Float – floating the flop, then waiting until the river to fire

Pushenomics – coined by my friend, referring to SNG strategy (not widely used so may be disqualified)

Hijack – the seat before the cutoff.
Using “three-bet” to mean re-raise in NL (Ewww….).

I’m sure I’ll think of 15 more once I post this.

FLOAT
a float is a delayed bluff, that might require calling one or two bets, that relies on the image of portryoing strength by calling a preflop-bet and most of the time a flop bet.

simple example of “floating the flop”:
preflop: A raises, B calls
flop: A bets, b calls
turn: A checks, B bets, A folds.

the same can be applied on the turn.

“I have a list started already. Here are a few words from it:

Donkaments — I don’t know what this word means but I’ve heard it a lot.
Float — a type of call at no-limit.
Stack — It’s new usage is as a verb, meaning to win the other guy’s stack (or lose your own) at no-limit or pot-limit. (ex: I love to stack that guy.)
Felt — as a verb, means the same as Stack.”

I don’t think we need to include any of the ones Tommy has already posted.

redonkulous– a ridiculous play make by a donk.

donktastic — a favorable situation which is favorable in large part due to the large number of donks involved in the situation

donk bet, or donked into, or donk lead — betting (leading out) out of position when you check/called the previous street

squeeze play — usually preflop, re-reaising after an original raise has been called by somebody (and you are not the original raiser or caller)

lagtard, or aggro tard — a loose agressive player who is a retard.

nit — see previous decades’ definition of “rock”

Thanks to all who have left words about words here and in my email box! — Tommy

Another one not yet on this list is “tagfish”, the cousin of the “lagtard”.

pushmonkey = shortstacker

While The Ice Man’s “flat-barrel” definition is useless, the term “barrel” is relevant (double meaning, etc.) and could find its way into your article.
