Think about it.
2 people playing the game. Each brings something to the table. At first you are generally conservative. Keeping the stakes low. You don't want to raise them too fast or too soon. That leads to disaster and loss.
Then someone will raise the stakes by say, texting you more often or asking you to do stuff more often. The other must either fold, call, or raise. If you fold, you are out of this game. If you call, it will go on. If you raise, it may go on but it also may end depending on the other player.
Next round the stakes may raise again, or you continue with what was "called" last round.
Then one ups the stakes. Say you are holding hands now - are you going to fold? call? raise?
How do you decide? Maybe you thought you wanted to fold but actually want to raise.
Maybe you were ok with calling but not raising.
Maybe you thought there was a possibility of raising but now you want to fold and get out.
Sometimes it takes a while for you to know what to do in this poker game.
Its hard. The more there is at stake the harder it is to make a decision.
