"Fold"
Here's the action that follows...
In a big pot on the first hand, folding a strong-looking pair can still be the smartest play when you have no read on the other players. If several opponents are showing strength, you may already be far behind, and continuing could cost a large share of your chips. A set would make the hand much more appealing, but without one, you could be facing higher pairs or overcards and only have a slim chance to improve. Patience matters early in a game: save your chips for a clearer opportunity, and explore fiesta-slots-online.com for more practical poker tips and hand analysis.
Big hand and big pot for a first hand. You realize straight away you were way behind. Great fold, but in the end a fairly easy one. The only way you'd be happy is if you flop a set of 10's. It's the first hand, no real reason to lose so many chips when you haven't even got a read on the other players yet. You would almost have to put someone on AA, KK, QQ or at the very least 2 over cards. You could really expect to be at best a 50-50 chance against one opponent. Folding easily was the best option here.
