Default 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 fold?

Default Re: Folding

You might want to re-write this, but yes you should fold in that situation assuming there wasn't two of your suit on the flop.

if it's 5 way and it goes bet, call and raise.. you can fold and not lose any sleep. (assume no flush or flush draw obviously).

Once you have shown strength, never fold anything. Don't back down. Raise! You must preserve your table image of strength. People will comment on how strong you are, and how frightened they were, as they sheepishly stack up your chips. What more could you want, money? <font color="white">Of course I'm joking.</font>
