easy fold

Call he has A8

Fold, alot of players do this to put doubt in your mind. Makes you think they just wana flip first hand, they don't.

Bet you folded and he played normally afterwards

If this is true then it's a snap for me.

some of the high stakes HUSNG players on 2p2 have posted that they used to shove i think JJ+ AQ+ first hand when they were playing lower stakes and used to get called by all sorts. i imagine many people have read that and are doing the same thing. if he is a really bad or on tilt player and has done it with air then we prob have a big edge for the rest of the game anyway if we fold.

if you SS him and see he's a terrible player who has lost his last 6 games then I guess it's a call but noflops doesn't break stars T&Cs i'm sure even if everybody else does

I called, he had and I won.
