Ridiculously simple TD 2-7 question
 

I've only been playing a week or two. Read DN's chapter in S/S2, but I'm not sure where he stands on this question.

I'm dealt K7632.

Clearly, I throw away the K. My question: Keep the 6, or muck it?

I just don't think 87632 is worth anything.

DN seems to love hands like 732xx, and seems to hate 6's.

Bottom line: Draw one to the 7632, or draw two to the 732?

Re: Ridiculously simple TD 2-7 question
 

Dear god please don't throw the 6.

Re: Ridiculously simple TD 2-7 question
 

Draw 1.

Hell, even TT would tell you to keep the 6 and he hates them more than Daniel.

LOL, you know thats not true, my hatred of 67's is a 2+2 urban legend. But I do drop a 6 in the BB if it's checked to me with a hand like KQJT6, and I will also drop the 6 with a hand like 876KK. The pot is small, I'd rather draw clean since I am comfortable with dumping the hand without a pre-flop raise.

PS to OP: PUMP THAT HAND! Put in as many raises as you can pre-first draw. And don't drop the 6 of course!

I told you it was a "ridiculously simple" question. Like I said, I'm new to the game.

I look forward to winning more, now I'll stop dumping the 6 in that spot.

Thanks, all.

JAM as hard as you can. keep the 6 bc a pat 7 is more than likely pillaging that pot.

One more: How about K6532?

87632 defintly has tons of value, and will win more than it will lose in HU pots. It does okay mulitway as well, esp if you can make solid breaks when you feel you are beat.

Id say it does slightly better than OK in a multi-way pot, its stength is offset by the size of the pot multi-way - in fact it might make more in the long run in a multi-way pot than a hand like 23458 HU does.

Another factor to consider in very-multi-way pots, chances are your opponent's outs are tainted. If its a 5 way pot and everyone is drawing 2 or better, thats 17 low cards that are missing from the deck at a minimum with 28 cards in the range of 2-8 - your a huge favorite if your the only pat hand.
