Poker Starting Hands - Everything else is a 4king waste of time
Knowing the strength or weakness of your starting hand (your hole cards) in Hold'em is one of the most important parts of playing Poker successfully.
As a new player correctly selecting which hands to play and which to lay down even BEFORE the flop is probably the single most effective way to minimise your loses.
Understanding exactly what possibilities your hand has will also gets you in the correct mindset if your faced with difficult decisions after you've seen the flop or when another player puts you to the test.
Everything else is a 4king waste of a bet!
If you stick to the playable hands outlined in the previous articles and select them based on your postion you will have roughly 50 possible starting hands to work with.
Have a look at some of them ... 3-2 suited ?? would you really want to be playing some of them - not really - so dont make it any harder playing all the other junk regardless of what postion your in.
As soon as you start including junk like unsuited interconnected disconnectors to your game - like 3-9 off or 7-10 off you really are asking for trouble - your a fish and you deserve to lose over the long term. Suited interconnected discounnectors are all junk - dont think - just fold.
7-2 off is statistically the worst hand in poker - it isn't possible to make a straight on the flop, even flopping 345 your still short and it's unsuited - no chance of a flush and its the lowest possible numerically too.
