Can you open fold in poker?
Re: Are open folds allowed? Folding when not facing a bet or when first to act violates too many ethical rules to mention. A penalty is not enough. Cards must be tabled at the end of the hand to erase any suspicion of collusion.

Why cant i fold more than 7 times?
It's commonly accepted that you cannot fold a single sheet of paper in half more than 7 times, no matter what paper finish, size, or basis weight you're using, for two main reasons: Every time you fold your sheet, you reduce your total surface area by half, so eventually you simply run out of surface area to fold.
