Donation

Donating is a method of "plugging" up the Tetris hole to send a T-Spin. After the T-Spin, the Tetris hole is opened up once again to allow the continuation of Tetris or downstacking.

Example 3

Although the Donating technique is mostly used over Tetris holes, it is also possible to use it to cover up T-Spin holes and open them up at a later point. This example is taken from a real multiplayer game. The player is utilizing the donating technique to the extreme, setting up 3 T-spin doubles before the original T-Spin hole is revealed again.
