[Phil153]

The hand belows illustrates a very important concept in poker - situational analysis.

Once it was clear that 3 people liked their hands, I stopped and thought. What do they have? All the aces and a heap of low cards were probably out, which means my JT96 is probably in excellent shape. As it turned out, I made a brilliant play:
