A very large poker tournament, mostly full of shitty players, aka donks. They are hard to win because these shitty ass players seem to always get lucky.
Rob: I just played a donkament on stars
Joe: didja win?
Rob: no
Joe: lol donkaments
A situation where one or severall persons behave like donkeys.
In poker a donkey, or "donk" is a person with inferior understanding of the game and who basically play the "wrong" way.
Due to the fact that there is randomness in poker, sometimes the "wrong" move may result in winning a pot against a wiser player. When a really silly move ends up in winning the pot due to a very unlikely draw hitting, you can call this a donkament.
Quotes that I heard :
"I'll never play online during week ends again, it's such donkaments"
A donkament is a poker game where everyone starts with the same number of chips, and then plays poker until someone has accumulated all the chips. Donkaments are known for having a large number of unskilled players as compared to cash games. For example, while many cash game players may fold QQ preflop, this hand should never be folded preflop in a donkament because people will go all in with a lot more hands than just AA and KK.
I got allin preflop with AA, and this guy called me with 7-2 offsuit. Lol donkaments.
Another name for a poker tournament. So many donkeys play in tournaments now that the two words have become combined, into donkament.
I was playing in a donkament when some idiot drew out on me
A donkament is a poker tournament who's blind and chip stack structure is such that an overly aggressive style of play is the common. Typically, donkaments have lower buyins and less skilled players. However, the WSOP has 1K donkaments every weekend during it's annual event and there is plenty of talent in that field.
I am off to gamble it up in a donkament, be back in an hour.
