Default Re: Average Hands

Q7 is used as the median hand in a heads up battle against a random hand. In other words, if you are the SB and it's just you and the BB, you can move all in and it will be a +EV play.

A good example is a tourney when it gets down to heads up. You should move in on the button with Q7 or better. This is generally true if villain is equal or better skill. If you have much better skill, then you can fold or see a flop for a limp. Or you can raise a tight villain if that's your edge. You want to seek big edges rather than slight edges against weak opponents.
