Default Re: 6max: folded TPTK want to understand theory

fold preflop vs a 12/8
As played you have position so just call the flop, position gives you information anyways. IE, unless you think he's betting two streets with AK or JJ, you can call flop and then fold to a turn bet without wasting another 2$

You are right about the raise turning your hand into a bluff. That's what an "information raise" is by definition, because you're folding out worse hands and taking the pot down, but you only get action from hands you're way behind and can safely fold. You don't make information raises for value, you make them for information
