90% of players are unable to fold here - can you?

You're Folding?! Surely you must be joking...

Beware the small flush

You turned your flush and happily bet it, but a nit makes a big raise. Your small flush will never win here.

A flush is certainly a strong hand, just don’t fall in love with small flushes too much. Especially when a nit 7.5x raises your bet.

A split pot sometimes isn't good enough

On the river you hold a hand that's almost the nuts, but your opponent overbets five times the pot. You don't want to call here!

If your opponent makes a huge overbet in most cases the best result is a split pot, just fold.

Strong hands become weak facing action from a nit

If your opponent is super tight, you are in a "way behind/way behind" situation with top pair!

Okay, he can have a flush draw, but still fold. Your opponent is too tight and your hand is rarely good.

Split pot

You got raised twice? Better be careful...

In this hand you got raised on the flop and on the river. Time to say good bye!

In this case Top Pair Top Kicker isn't a hand you want to call the second raise with.

Better be careful...

Sometimes Kings are no good

Yeah-yeah, I know, never fold KK preflop. But seriously, tell me, how many times have you seen a hand other than AA when your opponent min-5-bets you like this?
