Cash Games - Best and Worst starting hands?

[robilaruk]

Re: Cash Games - Best and Worst starting hands? I really don't understand this thinking at all (not just you staffy) with AA you don't need to improve on the flop - your opponents do, this is really negative thinking from people and something I just cannot grasp at all why people constantly harp on about it. you are at least a 4:1 fav PF (HU) with AA, so why is it obvious that sometimes you will be behind on the flop - what flop would make that obvious? (multi-way pots are waaaaaaaaaaay more tricky :lol - I am taliking HU here) re people catching - well that is down to them making bad calls (if you bet enough) or bad play by you by not betting enough - if you make them make bad calls then in the long run you win re lay down of AA - yes too many times we all don't lay it down against multiple players when the board is really shocking Damo

I am surprised people say that your best hands should be AA and KK. OK yes they are the best starting hands available but at the end of the day they are just a PP. If you dont hit after the flop then its obvious sometimes you will be behind or people will catch when chasing striaghts and flushes. I am aggressive when playing AA and find that it is my worst hand. I think it is the same problem as a lot of people you have to be prepared to lay it down. Check your stats of what your best winning hands are. I bet 1 pair is not your best hand so why would AA win for you.

Re: Cash Games - Best and Worst starting hands? errr actually I am yes (assuming HU) - unless the board is really crap then I believeing I am still at least a 4:1 fav on the flop against a single opponent - why would I think otherwise if the flop is 10 6 2 rainbow? (assuming I have made a decent raise PF etc) multi-pots are a different kettle of fish - but HU I am ahead on the flop 80%+ of the time and will endeavour to make the villian pay to chase Damo

I don't think anyone is suggesting that AA and KK are the best hands once the flop has been dealt :unsure

[robilaruk]

Re: Cash Games - Best and Worst starting hands? well thats because A10 is shite :) its a limp in from late position hand after 4 more limpers and hope to hit the nut straight - otherwise from EP/MP it should be in the muck or its a folded to you in the CO/Button and raise hand hoping to collect the blinds or get HU harrington describes it quites nicely in HoH vol I as "a car that has not only just crashed but fallen off the cliff" (or something similar) - ("AJ is a car that has crashed") Damo

ATs AT moment(although AT is already looking dodgy:$)

Re: Cash Games - Best and Worst starting hands? totally agree Damo, the dodgy bit is why I keep playing it:wall

Re: Cash Games - Best and Worst starting hands?

errr actually I am yes (assuming HU)

AA or KK are SELDOM the nuts (best hand after the flop). If there is no A or K on the flop then it is certain that they are not the best hand!!!!! Pre flop they are the best hand, post flop, unlikely and you need to work out where you stand against your opponent(s)......as you still have a good chance of being ahead of them, even without the best hand....

They may not be the nuts, but if you've narrowed the field to one other player, there's still a fair chance you're ahead IMO. The chances of someone missing the flop are something like 68% (IIRC an article in a magazine a few months back, which I probably don't!) so there's a pretty good chance you've both missed, and therefore you stay ahead.

[robilaruk]

Re: Cash Games - Best and Worst starting hands? let me get this right you have AA and are HU on the flop and AA is seldom the best hand at this point - so that means that your 80/20 favourite (at least) is now a dog, because the villian has caught and is ahead? can I ask why the villian is now ahead - and why only villians improve and the Aces don't? I am not trying to be argumentative here but to understand this general obsession that people seem to have that Aces are great PF but shite on the flop if no ace comes - aces don't need to improve other hands do - this is a fact and a basic concept people should realise - yes obviously if the flop is co-ordinated then your aces are vulnerable, I am not disputing that, but they are in the vast majority of cases still ahead. Even if the villian hits part of the flop he is no better off in most cases for instance you raise Ad As and get called by KhQc (not unreasonable) so PF you are a 86/14 fav flop: Jh 8H 6d you are now a 91/9 fav Kc 8s 5d you are a 81/19 fav - hey the villian hit and is still a 4:1 dog Kc Jh 10s you are now a 70/30 fav - and without flopping 2 pair or trips or a made straight it doen't get much better for the villian than that as a flop so why the worry? re you second paragraph - this is the same regardless of the cards you have - unless you really do flop the nuts and cannot be beaten regardless of the turn and river, then you never know 100% that you are ahead and need to bet to find out, its just that some cards are (as said previously) ahead of the race already and if you are ahead PF then you are more often than not going to be ahead on the flop as well, its how you play at this point which determines if you stay ahead or whether you give folks chances to outdraw you (more folks = more chances of losing, so its best to make they pay PF and the flop to play their hands) Cheers Damo

Re: Cash Games - Best and Worst starting hands? spot on - two random non paired cards in the hole - you will pair about 30% of the time on the flop Damo

They may not be the nuts' date=' but if you've narrowed the field to one other player, there's still a fair chance you're ahead IMO.

2 out of 3 I just picked up the blinds, but was I really called (for 85 BB) by KQs??????? This is certainly not the optimal way to play Aces, however I think it's an interesting experiment for now and will persevere to see just how often I do get calls!!!!

[happyhornet]

Re: Cash Games - Best and Worst starting hands? I think you will find, GaF, that you will get callers going all-in, especially if you are relatively new to the table. At this level, there are players who are afraid of post flop play and will push with 10's or better AK, AQ, possibly less and therefore people with a decent hand will call (and regret it instantly when you turn over your Aces!). As you say, long term, this is not the way to play Aces (IMO), but at $0.10/$0.20 level may be an interesting strategy if you are new to a table.

[GaF]

Re: Cash Games - Best and Worst starting hands? I'm wondering whether it will be profitable to shove with AA, KK, QQ, AKs AND 72o ...... not showing any, EXCEPT 72o ..... if I shove a couple of times with 72o, everyone folds and I show, should lead to some looser calls with the premium hands :unsure (and some tilt?) Or maybe a hand like 87s instead of 72o, so I at least have a chance if called :unsure

Re: Cash Games - Best and Worst starting hands? Just gone into a $0.10/$0.25 game on Stars with the intention of doing that, GaF - will post to say how I get on!

[mrmuzeman]

Re: Cash Games - Best and Worst starting hands? Its an interesting strategy guys (you will get some donkey calls for sure) but it wont help you with playing AA on other streets for the future so I dont suggest you carrying out the strategy for too long. I would suggest against fairly shortstacks who have already called or raised this is a more reasonable move.

[GaF]

Re: Cash Games - Best and Worst starting hands? Sounds like good advice Mr M :ok Have to be honest - isn't really working for me anyway - more than anything, I seem to have turned into a calling station with all my other hands!!!! :loon :loon

[robilaruk]

Re: Cash Games - Best and Worst starting hands? aces and kings yes not QQ or AK IMHO - to vulnerable to either an A or K (QQ) - or a PP (AK) as you have demonstrated, someone called AI with KQ, so your QQ is dodging a King I see no problem with this strategy - especially if you are someone that can't lay Aces down as you will call AI on the flop/turn anyway - it also removes the chance of someone bluffing you off your hand if you make a standard play and the flop comes 10 10 5 etc and someone bets big (have they got the ten etc?) I can't see why this wouldn't work at any level - especially at a fulltable as someone is likely to have a PP or AK AQ AJ KQ etc and may fancy their hand - especially if they are short stacked I quite like this brutal approach to playing aces good luck :ok Damo

Re: Cash Games - Best and Worst starting hands? Is there anything like PokerTracker/Office that works on Boss? I'm interested to see what garbage makes me the most money. Since the range of hands I play is a bit messed up (hence why I play short-handed tables), it'd be a laugh seeing that 8-9 suited is something that makes me more money than Aces or Kings. However, I'll be moving to Full Tilt in the new year so I'll have some fun stats around the end of January. Btw, the technique with Aces and Kings I like. A-K and the like, not so much. A-K is a drawing hand and, as we know, people with Q-Q to 10-10 will call most of the time and they're ahead pre-flop and usually post-flop. Still, an intersting idea.

Re: Cash Games - Best and Worst starting hands? Still no calllers for any of them although did win $18 profit in one hand with a HUGE stroke of luck - I had TT and limped, flop of AAx which we checked, checked the turn, river a T, he shoved with AK, and walked straight into my boat! :roll

[GaF]

Re: Cash Games - Best and Worst starting hands?

Is there anything like PokerTracker/Office that works on Boss?

Not yet, but now they have compatible hand histories, is only a matter of time :ok My thinking behind AKs is that: 1) If your opponent has AA you are a long way behind. If your opponent has KK you are behind but have the A as an out. 2) If your opponent has a pair below KK then you are behind, but only just - it's not far from a coin flip. 3) If your opponent calls with a non pair (and not AK) then you are quite a long way ahead. I am thinking that Category 3 at these tables will generate more profit than Category 1 and 2 put together will cost you.

Re: Cash Games - Best and Worst starting hands? I've been playing quite a lot of cash recently and it's gotten so bad with AA that I just chuck everything in and close my eyes. Had KK 4 times on Sunday and didn't win a hand, it was horrible when I realised that the reason I lost is because I played them so badly. Just when you think you have a grip on the game you realise that you've just gone up another level and that you still have so much to learn. I'm an averagely decent tournament/STT player and got my arse kicked all over the place on 0.25/0.50 NL If anyone can recommend some cash play books then that'd be great.
