    Because if your opponent is any good he'll read this as a donk bet and re-raise you whether he has it or not. Which is fine if you are doing this to induce and then call or shove on the re-raise.

    Re raise to 2.60 pre flop for me in the small blind, calling is way too weak imo!! plus by calling you are allowing the bb to come in with any 2 cards really, Folding to his shove is easy without notes ....thing is even if you call and you are ahead! your probably not far ahead, likely being against kj of hearts or of the sort!!

    The fold on the flop is not weak necessarily but your call from the small blind WAS!!

    If they've just joined surely this is a great spot to at the very least get some good notes by calling and your most likely ahead anyways.

    Not folding here Poddington - I had trouble folding this exact same situation against the biggest nit on the site.

    Against a random, the only way I fold is if I mis-click when I excitedly launch the magic finger in the direction of the call button.

    misty joined the table and posted blind utg checked and overcalled the raise and has any two cards, then shoves your lead out so its obvious this is a terrible player, i guess they would do this with any draw, a random queen and two pair, because of that and also because its fun im calling

    his bet makes no sense

    in an mtt or sng (my game) it may be different!

    but i worked soo hard getting my stack up just to donk it off on a fact finding mission or a big gamble (that i still think im losing). agree to disagree as they say in bullseye " i ve had a great evening and im taking the money!!!!"
