Poker Strategies
After receiving pocket cards, you are immediately faced with a choice: play your cards and either raise or call the blinds, or fold.

Grandpa calls and raises 15 cents.
Grandpa calls and raises 15 cents. Junior folds. Mother also folds. It’s now just you and the old coot, Grandpa. Does he have an Ace- High or a Pair of Aces? With Grandpa, you never know. You look at him carefully looking for a “tell.” You look to see if he appears to be bluffing. He just smiles back at you, in his kindly grandfatherly way. You delay, you take your time, you think it over, and you reluctantly fold.
Grandpa wins the pot.
