<P> To fold is to discard one's hand and forfeit interest in the current pot . No further bets are required by the folding player, but the player cannot win . Folding may be indicated verbally or by discarding one's hand face down into the pile of other discards called the muck, or into the pot (uncommon). For this reason it is also called mucking . In stud poker played in the United States, it is customary to signal folding by turning all of one's cards face down . Once a person indicates a fold or states I fold, that person cannot re-enter the hand . In casinos in the United Kingdom, a player folds by giving their hand as is to the "house" dealer, who spreads the cards face up for the other players to see before mucking them . </P> <P> When participating in the hand, a player is expected to keep track of the betting action . Losing track of the amount needed to call, called the bet to the player, happens occasionally, but multiple occurrences of this slow the game down and so it is discouraged . The dealer may be given the responsibility of tracking the current bet amount, from which each player has only to subtract their contribution, if any, thus far . </P> <P> To aid players in tracking bets, and to ensure all players have bet the correct amount, players stack the amount they have bet in the current round in front of them . When the betting round is over (a common phrase is "the pot's good"), the players will push their stacks into the pot or the dealer will gather them into the pot . Tossing chips directly into the pot (known as splashing the pot), though popular in film and television depictions of the game, causes confusion over the amount of a raise and can be used to hide the true amount of a bet . Likewise, string raises, or the act of raising by first placing chips to call and then adding chips to raise, causes confusion over the amount bet . Both actions are generally prohibited at casinos and discouraged at least in other cash games . </P> <P> Most actions (calls, raises or folds) occurring out - of - turn--when players to the right of the player acting have not yet made decisions as to their own action--are considered improper, for several reasons . First, since actions by a player give information to other players, acting out of turn gives the person in turn information that they normally would not have, to the detriment of players who have already acted . In some games, even folding in turn when a player has the option to check (because there is no bet facing the player) is considered folding out of turn since it gives away information which, if the player checked, other players would not have . </P>
