$4/180 Preflop suited connectors

[markbris]

Pretty simple. Say UTG+1 limps for 50, UTG+2 raises to 100, folds to us in cutoff with 76s with a stack of 1840. You folding or calling? Anything else you might want to add about these situations.

There's a pretty good article floating around here somewhere with all the suited connector maths and playing draws that you should hunt down.

So

My rule of thumb is invest up to 5% of your stack if there is an opportunity to win at least 25x the initial investment.

You can get into some very marginal situations with these so if you are not strong post flop folding is okay especially in tournaments.

Very rarely will you have a made hand on the flop a "hit" for a SC is a open end straight and/or flush draw and you need to do a bit of planning ahead because you generally want to be jamming and getting fold equity in the equation vs. check/calling.

PS In situation above I fold.
