Re: What are the top 10 starting hands in holdem?
Well the difference between 19% and 23% wins is actually 4 units of % better and thus 87s will win 21% more than 87o. So 87s is better than 87o - but the difference is more apperant in multiway hands.
Phil Gordon is correct in 2 ways:
-Many players will play any 2 cards - as long as they are of the same suit. These players chase flush draws - which is a bad idea.
- When less players are involved in a hand - high cards become more important and straight and flush draws decrease in value - one often don't get the odds to draw to them playing HU efter the flop.
