Re: Is It Possible To Win A Tight Hold \'em Game, Theoretically?

Thanks for the feedback.
Per your example...

Folding

It's got to be correct to raise/fold sometimes, right?
Say you raise before the flop with AKs and a 6 7 8 shows up on the flop. Then there's a raise and reraise in front of you. Is it correct to...
