3 TIPS On When To FOLD Strong Poker Hands!

When should you fold good hands on the flop? There are definitely situations to find that hero fold and today Jonathan discusses the factors you should consider before making that fold!
Jonathan hates folding good hands on the flop but there are certain situations that you should do it depending on your opponent’s strategies at the poker table.

Most people do not play Game Theory Optimal (GTO) especially in multiway pots. Always consider this as some players will over value their hand in situations where they should be tighter than normal. Most players are relatively honest with their raises so you have to determine which opponents are out to get after it.

Folding early will save you a lot of trouble and probably a lot of money in the long run! If your opponents will play straightforwardly on the turn then calling the flop potentially becomes better if their flop raising range is somewhat wider than most poker players.

It is not really ideal to call flop, turn and then deciding to fold on the river.

In multiway pots the odds that someone will flop a premium hand increases drastically. Remember that if it is not you, then it probably is one of your opponents. You should look to be for value/protection with your best hands but you should be quick to find when you face aggression against your straightforward opponents.
