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.

Fourth round of betting:
Fourth round of betting: Player 1 bets $25 (maximum bet). Players 2, 3, and 4 fold their hands. You now have a problem? What should you do? You were unlucky and did not draw an unbeatable hand, but you still have Three Tens. One of your opponents may have been very lucky and drawn to an Ace-High Straight. You decide to call $25 and raise $25! You make this maximum raise, with gusto, as if you’d drawn the case Ten.
