From a B&M game last night:

4-handed, unraised pot. Flop: K /images/graemlins/heart.gif 5 /images/graemlins/spade.gif 8 /images/graemlins/diamond.gif

SB checks, BB checks, UTG + 1 checks, Button checks, SB bets, dealer informs SB that she can't bet.

Turn: A /images/graemlins/heart.gif

SB folds.

What's to figure out? SB is an idiot.

What exactly is your question? Also give more details; was she a solid an experienced player? Had she played for a long period of time? if so, then she was probably too tired or too drunk.
If not, then she is learning (she was probably nervous)!! give new players a break. "The mistakes of your opponents mean money for you" /images/graemlins/smirk.gif

Even if we assume that the lady is a complete neophyte to the game, what would lead someone to decide to bet, then suddenly change her mind and open-fold?

BTW, this was an off-duty poker dealer. Really.

don't read into it. She was bad and just made a mistake. There's no psychological trick going on, and if there is it went WAY over my head.

Simple, SB decided to take a stab at the pot but changed her mind after seeing the turn and feeling like an idiot.
