The #1 Rule is, If you are Behind, Fold. The Reverse, then is, If you are Ahead, Raise.<br /><br />This drives me nuts. If that guy really thought he was ahead, then he should be raising, not folding. It's so friggin' obvious, but then again, how many times have people said, "I know I'm behind, but I call."

He probably has at worst A5 and is a 48% to your 52%. <br />If he raises, you might shove and if he calls, he cant continue.<br />:)Poker Jnoreply@blogger.com
