Fold (alt)

A fold is where a player decides to discard their hand due to either not having a hand or believing their hand is inferior to those of other players.

e.g "I folded my 2-5 off suit before the flop."
"I had two pair after the river, but there were 4 spades on the board. The shark across from me bet big, so I decided to fold as I thought he had a flush."
