Re: psychology of folding
Folding instead of checking can have an impact on the hand, something which can, at times, be taken advantage of. Three handed pot, for example, first to act just folds on the river, well, I often bet that because I don't have to worry about that individual setting me up for a check-raise and now I'm heads-up. That said, I am not a fan of people folding with no prior action - I wouldn't mind at all if sites stopped this practice altogether. Even if I make a position raise with an 8 5, it is not necessarily a bad thing that people see that hand - they may be more inclined to call you down the next time when you have a legitimate hand. Just my thoughts.
