You know you're playing against a donk when...

I just don't understand why people defend their blinds with ANY TWO CARDS. And why is it that every time I pick up a big pocket pair, I raise, get called, flop the overpair and continuously get sucked out on??

I rasied preflop 3 1/2 x the BB... there's no reason to call that raise. And then when I bet that much on the flop, I OBVIOUSLY have an overpair, right? He had to have called thinking his pair of 5s were good, right? What did he put me on betting that much? AK? ARGH!!!
