odds of hitting with suited connectors

[phydaux]

With suited connectors you will flop either two pair or a primary draw about 1 time in 8.

Roughly the same as flopping a set with a pocket pair.

So watch the Rule of 5 & 10 when you're playing these hands. Only call a raise when you have position on the raiser and it doesn't break the rule. You want effective stacks to be at least 60-75bb, more is better. Raise with them, but remember that when you do you're not really playing your cards. You're playing your position, your aggression and your opponent's tendencies.

I love playing SCs & small PPs. Just remember not to fall in love with them.
