Surviving a superdonk

Superdonks are never fun to play against. They're the main reason I don't play rebuy tournaments any more. They show up far less frequently in non-rebuy tournaments, but they still show up. When they do, you have to find a way to survive them. Generally speaking, you should fold to their all in bets. You can't do this all the time, though; you must think seriously of calling if you've been dealt a decent hand. Last night, I survived a superdonk by following this strategy. I folded to every all in by the superdonk except two, and won both those hands. Poetic justice was served when the superdonk hit the rail two spots shy of the money.
