I can't deal with this anymore

It's a great game.
I love that you can play with euro coins.
Really like the tournaments and the blind levels.

BUT can you please allow us to disable check-raising?
It's horrible etiquette.

Player A checks
Player B bets
Player C calls

play returns to to player A who now raises Player B's bet.

In reality they should only be allowed to call the new bet since they already checked.

As I know when is placed a bet a player is free to call or raise, also if this same person has already checked in the same betting round.

[Zaxabock]

Please read what I typed again, I don't think you fully understand it.

[[ITA] YouF]

Ok, I re-read the question... and I' m still of the same opinion...(I correct now "re-raise" in my first reply in "raise" anyway).

You said that, in a betting round, if Player A has already check, Player B bets and Player C calls, when is again the turn of Player A because Player B has bet, Player A can only call or fold considered that he had already checked at the start of betting round.

I repeat, as I know, when Player A retake the turn after the bet of Player B, he is free of call, fold or raise, also if he has already checked at the start of the turn.

I had also checked Trendpoker 3D - Community Edition gameplay's guide, but I could give an another look.

But I am against the rule that he is allowed to raise after previously checking. Many many poker players do not like check-raising players.

In other poker games that I have played, if you checked when it was your turn, then another player bets higher than what you've checked, you could only call that new bet or fold. I agree that the players who've already checked shouldn't be able to raise, especially since they didn't want to bet in the first place.

are you annoyed by players doing so - or is there any rule set? let us know

[Zaxabock]

Check-raising is a specific poker rule set offered by certain Online Poker websites. The player clicks a box in their option panel which is marked "No check-raise" or similar wording. This acts as a filter for any future matches. Players with this option enabled will only be able to play with others who also have this enabled.

I request that you incorporate such an option into this game so that players who are fine with check-raising can play their way, but also give players who are against check-raising a way to disable it.

Only against bots or with real players, that is up to you, the developers.

Thank you for taking the time to reply.

this is the silliest thing i have ever heard.

check-raising is a perfectly valid, and even integral, part of poker. it is a critical tool for 1) extracting more value from a hand in early position, especially in cases where a bet will likely result in one or more folds, 2) as a technique for pot-size management when you want to build a big pot, 3) allowing you to get free cards from early position (especially in the blinds) in future hands when you would LIKE to be able to draw without having to face a bet, by forcing your opponents to consider the possibility of a check-raise when betting, and 4) mixing up your game by forcing your opponents to consider that a check MAY NOT indicate weakness.

it is especially valuable from early position in 2 or 3 handed pots with highly aggressive players, to keep continuation betting and post-oak bluffs under control... and valuable against weak players to blow them off their hand when their bet feels like a c-bet or post-oak bluff.

if you cant deal with check-raising, frankly, you have no business playing cards at all.

Check baiting is the easiest way to get money off the computer for sure even on the hardest difficulty. Very easy to bluff them, especially if you note the ones that go agressive they seem to pull the brakes way to often.

Check-raising is part of the game. I appreciate that you might've played on some websites which give you the option to turn it off but this isn't something you can do IRL so they're actually teaching you the wrong rules of the game!

Please do your research before complaining and especially before asking developers to change a game to suit your play style!

Never fails. Someone asks for a new feature that will be optional to use. Folks attack it because it isn't the way they want to play. Your response is 'OPTIONAL'.

"Check-Raising" is a point of etiquette at some poker tables, in-person and online, while others do not restrict it. The no-Check-Raising poker rooms and/tables are more geared toward beginners, while those that allow Check-Raising are mostly found in a NL setting. In essence, No-Check-Raising rule is part of a "limit" function. In an in-person live NL setting, Check-Raising is a valid tactic when monsters are on the prowl. The psychological tactic seeks to draw more chips into the pot while provoking a player toward going on tilt.
