Well done last night Debs.
I really enjoy this game on a Monday Night, good craic, relaxed atmosphere, etc.
However, there is always one player who never fails to "p1ss on the camp fire", when he loses a hand.
I know I am relatively inexperienced compared to this player, and no doubt he could teach me a thing or two about poker,but he could never tutor me in good manners.
I played out the following hand, in which prior to calling on the river, he commented "77 ? so obvious" and proceeded to call my river bet. I commented after, that if it was so obvious, "why call then ?". His reply was "cos ur a donk"
Can anyone tell me if i was indeed playing this hand without any strategy or am I indeed a "donk";

I really look forward to playing more experienced players in these "Friendly Games" as part of my learning curve. So I would appreciate some comments on how I played this hand, either well, or as a "donk"
