Good afternoon Ladies and Gentlemen! I learn to play poker by visiting poker sites and watching the game play online cash tables. Yesterday I watched a situation that often happens with me. There are two players, on the flop one Straight Draw on the second pair, on turn on the first one Straight Draw, but the second catches the second oldest pair, on the River the first gets a straight and wins. As I wrote with me this situation often happens, I wanted to get advice on how to play the role of the second player in this situation in order to lose a lot or try win. Regards, Sergey

Unfortunately, this situation is now happening on many poker platforms. The first and most important thing is to play 1-2 tables and watch how the players behave in different situations, this will facilitate your decision. The second is to put more chips (2/3 of the pot approximately) to remove the opportunity to collect cheap street for example
