    Default A dumb hand vs. a donkey (50NL)

    Whenever I take some time off from poker, I like to get my bearings again by playing some 50NL and posting some standard hands on here to make sure I didn't forget how to play poker.

    Anyway, some donk sat down with about $15 and the first two hands he played, when the action was to him on the flop, he just shoved all-in. On the third hand, I raised with AJ and he called, and the flop was 993. I checked to him, he shoved all-in again, and I insta-called. Good/bad/ugly?

    Here are the three hand histories FWIW.

    My bankroll is the amount of money I would spend or lose before I got a job. It is calculated by adding my net worth to whatever I can borrow.
