Suited connectors?

[gavwoo_]

Got into a discussion last night RE suited cards in a live game.

I had pockets 10's and the other guy had AQ suited, was my hand favourite pre flop? I thought it was as I'd already hit my pair preflop and he needed to hit in order to win, it's pretty much a coin toss scenario though isn't it?

TT =54% EV
Ranked 25th Strongest hand:
Probability of facing a higher pocket 10 seat table 1.96%

Aqs =46% EV
Ranked 85th Strongest hand.
Probability of facing a stronger hand 10 seat table 6.87%

I take the Ten Ten every time.

you say " TT =54% EV
Ranked 25th Strongest hand:
Probability of facing a higher pocket 10 seat table 1.96%"

what is the probability of facing a stronger hand 10 seat table ?? for the 10 10

It is a coinflip but you are the slight favor i will take the 10's each and every time.

Both are good hands that can win nice pots for you. Both are heart breakers when they lose.
I faced this very hand last night.
My pocket 10's against AQ diamond.
Flop came 10 x x (2 diamonds)
I went all in, but got the call from the bigger stack. My tens didn't grow, but he hit that damn flush on the river. I had chores to do, so it was probably for the best.

I think I'd rather have AQs. Pocket 10's are not very lucky for me. I ususally get beat.

not sure this may be a daft question, is 10 10 Ranked 25th strongist hand because AA,AA,AA,AA are the 1st 4 ranked hands? I am having an argument about how you rank hands GT. I think 10 10 is the 5th strongest hand.

what deck of cards are you playin with that has 8 Aces in the deck???

[willie beaman]

10s are definately a hand you want to play depending on the spot. Wouldn't want to see too many all in spots 10s vs AQ suited though.

And also without K, Q and J because TT is the 5th strong hand after AA, AA, AA, AA

By the way, I take TT too!
