Have you ever wondered if you were behind with the best hand when playing free poker online? Is it even possible?

To answer your question. Yes, it is possible to feel the need to fold the best hand occasionally.

Whether it be pre flop or post flop some situations might dictate for you to fold the better hand.

Times like this will arise when you are holding a pair of great cards, but your opponent is holding better cards, for example, you may be holding a J Q and your opponent has an A K.

Now depending on situation and chip stacks odds are these hands that would be playing a big pot? If it is early in a tournament or close to a bubble and you have a good stack but your opponent has you covered or equalled then this might be a time to fold the better hand. No reason to risk your tournament life on a race when it isn’t recommended or needed.

You may also find yourself in a situation post flop where you are holding a great hand of two aces and your opponent is holding a 7 and 8 of hearts. Along comes the flop at 5, 6 and two with two hearts.

Now you make a small feeler bet but your opponent re raises you big. Although your aces are the best hand mathematically you are an underdog and might want to fold them depending on situation and chip counts.

Sometimes the players that can make the big lay down are the ones that have more success. These are situations that occur often in tournaments and you see people regret not folding. But at the same time you need to follow your instinct and call if need be.

Successful poker is not about big wins and losses but how many times you put your money in good. Practice by playing free poker online to get your base skills honed and then go for it!.
