Re: Probability of 2 PP\'s at 9 handed table?
Very good advice...
Of course, when I folded, I didn't know they both had aces. I assumed one did and another was a fish with a midrange pocket pair. If I knew they both had Aces, I would have gone in just for the sheer joy of saying I did, brave soul that I am...
Also, I was playing an STT and I have a strategy (still being refined, but definitely working) that maximizes how often I get into the money.
It's based on this concept:
Don't assign so much value to premium hands... Be more concerned with the situation as a whole. Instead of asking myself, "Is my hand valuable?" I should be asking myself, "Is my situation valuable?" In this light, my Kings were more of a regular hand.
... and also based off the fact that in STTs you have an extra avenue of winning - patience (which, when combined with 2-3 well-timed power plays, will usually put you in the money).
... and that's my justification for doing something stupid like folding Kings. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
