    Default tracking donks

    Lately I've taken to keep a list of donks, anyone who runs over 60 vpip, can't let go of 2nd pair and is a long tern loser gets stuck on it. And the list is tgrowing fast!

    Is there any softwar out there, preferably free, that will search stars and alert me if at any point while I'm playing, one of these guys sit down at a table?
    I'm the king of bongo, baby I'm the king of bongo bong.

    i know pt3 has a table tracker where you can track most profitable tables based on who you've won money from the most but it costs money and IMO not worth it at small stakes...

    pokertabletracker.com has a free most profitable table finder also...

    Most guys that play that badly either lose and don't come back or finally figure it out to the point of not playing the same( look for 50 VPIP players with 5K hands). If your at a stake long enough to follow long term losers for that long I would stop playing the table selection game and start playing tougher opponents. I don't believe anyone under $50NL should bumhunt anyway. I get that sometimes you need to have the table dynamic set up right with some fishier players on the right and tighter players on the left, but to actually look for fish at $2NL-$25NL is kinda pointless and will not really prepare you for moving up or getting better.

    At 50NL and below, I'd be more worried about beating the regs and learning the game when it's cheap, than bum hunting and building up a superficial roll. Don't get me wrong, it's great you're looking for the big fish. I just don't think it's going to help you evolve as a poker player and get you ready for what's waiting for you at mid-stakes.

    That aside, PT3 has the table tracker feature, as stated above. I think there's also something called Eye Poker or something but I can't remember what it is or if it even exists.

    EDIT: just realized Jyms said basically the same thing, meh.

    Once on a table, if ya can't spot the fish.. guess who is the fish.

    It is not really important If you have AK suited and nothing on the board against looser donk fish player who plays every hand and has one pair.You don't know if he has something because he pay or raise every hand.
    Play your hands don't chase donks they get good cards sometimes.
