In most poker books I have read they introduce you to the game of Texas Holdem saying stick to the PRMIUM HANDS - even though these hands have a high win rate, restricting your range will slow your win rate.
A few years ago, i adopted Ace and King with a small suited card [eg: Ad.2d or Ks.3s]
- now these are more advanced, and take a liitle more calculation, or so they say... For me however, you can expect a call from any position.
The only conditions:
*CALL THE BB IF ITS REASONABLY PRICED.
*DONT PAY MORE THAN 5% OF YOUR STACK.
*IF YOU MISS THE FLOP, DONT HESISTATE TO FOLD
*IF YOUR OPPONENT RAISES PRE-FLOP, MAKE SURE HE HAS ENOUGH CHIPS INFRONT OF HIM TO MAKE PROFITABLE FOR WHEN YOU DO HIT.
To be honest, these are some of my favourite hands, owing to the fact that if i do HIT your opponents arent expecting A.2... as your ASSUMED style is tight...
Just last night there was a situation where by i had [Ah. 4h]... the board [2h. Js. 5h... 9h. Kd.] >>> after the pot boiled over to about R200. my opponent flipped [Jh. 7h]... and he was stunned to see i had him NAILED...
> In my oppinion, another way to go about play the "nut flush draw"... (call something small pre-flop) and then send a SEMI-BLUFF on the flop. Its called a semi bluff because you still have 9-outs (36%) and maybe even the Ace landing could win you the hand...
I read this somewhere on the net this morning: Be aware of all the chip stacks at the table so you know who to attack and defend.
