If for example the bet at the end of the 1st round came to £50, then on the 2nd round, would the person that starts the round have to match 50? Or start a new bet?

every day we play the game of life and we do it well. do we play chess or do we play poker. basically I talking about how we solve problems. some people are calculative {chess} and some people bluff there way through life {poker}.

which is the way you solve problems and why.

here some examples of how each work.

poker solution: when someone his holding something good against you. you instaly solution and bluff an say you have something better or try to by them off.

chess solution to that problem: you think for hours as you come up with a way to solve the problem. eventually putting the other person in check mate.

I kind of both

p.s. you can go with another game for your answer if you’ like.

A J asked:


say u have a 10 and Q and on the flip comes a 10, 7 , J, u catch one pair of 10, but everyone else folds but one guy. so u keep playing because u have a pair and it was only 50 cents to call so now its between u and him now. on the turn comes an 8, its ur turn to check or raise, u raise 2 dollars trying to make the other guy think u got a straight jack high but the other guy calls beacuse he thinks u’re bluffing. so now u are in trouble because because the other guy thinks ure bluffing and he’ll call whatever amount u bet. so on the river comes another 8 and u dont get a straight, so would u go in all in beacuse u still have pair of 10’s and the other guy most likely might not have anything at all or if not go all in, how much would u bet ?
in this case, the suits of the card doesnt mean anything, so no flush possibilties
