> I actually find somewhat paradoxical that the first player should fold with a K and bluff with a Q! Bluffing is a strategy that wins against the middling hands you can convince to fold, and loses against the strongest hands which just call you anyways. The game is special in that when you have a middling hand, your opponent never has one, so they always either correctly call with the best hand or correctly fold with the worst.
