Push fold is a particular type of fold in poker. When a player pushes, they are indicating to their opponents that they are not interested in continuing to play the hand.
This can be done in a variety of ways, such as folding before any hands have been played, folding all of their cards face down, or even just shaking their head no when asked if they would like to see any more cards.
Push folds can be advantageous for the player who makes them. By folding early, they are able to avoid getting involved in any potential high-stakes pots and instead save themselves for later rounds when the stakes are likely to be lower.
Additionally, if their opponents are foolish enough to call with a hand that the player is clearly not interested in playing, they will likely lose money since the player will be able to get away with calling with weaker hands without risking too much.
