Default Yet Another Set of CP2-7 Hands With a Theme

What are the best settings for these hands, playing Chinese Poker with 2-7 in the middle? What do these hands have in common?

Default Re: Yet Another Set of CP2-7 Hands With a Theme

This theme is easy to recognize, there is always straight in the middle but the best way is to play it. Here is how I set these hands:

#1: 3457TA 3 389J TQ
A7543 789TJ 333

#2: 7K 247TA 47 24JQ
44422 89TJQ 777 ( a little bit of gambling in this one 7s on top)

#3: 249J 238 4 234TQ
44433 89TJQ 222

#4: 689K 49JK 59JK 7
KKKJJ 45678 999

#5: 79TA 8A 67QKA 6A
AKQ76 flush 6789T AAA (what a nice hand for Chinese high)

#6: 9 2478TJ 247Q 47
44422 89TJQ 777 (again higher trips on top, I hope you don't punish me with the %)

I think you mean A457T(flush) 89TJQ 333, as there are only three 3's in OP.

Correct!

Lower trips in front is usually best, though. Here's #2:
0.252675 2d2s4d4h4s TdJsQsKcAd 7c7d7h
0.427211 2d2s7c7d7h TdJsQsKcAd 4d4h4s

And here's #6:

0.376353 2d2h4h4s4s 8d9cTdJdQh 7d7h7s
0.57403 2d2h7d7h7s 8d9cTdJdQh 4h4s4s

For amusement value, consider this group of hands:

34567[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 23456[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] => 3456A-flush 23457 AA6

34567[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 23456[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] => 34567-sf 23456-sf KKK

34567[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 23456[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 9[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]9[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]9[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] => 34567-sf 23456-sf 999

34567[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 23456[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 8[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]8[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]8[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] => 34567-sf 23458 886

For 999-KKK it's correct to play a straight flush in the middle. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

One can of course find cases where it is correct to play a flush in the middle, too, such as 2d2hKdKhKs 4s6s7s9sAs 8d8h8s (+1.5 vs. only +1.0 for 88KKK 24678 29A.) I found 187 such cases in 1M hands. 259 hands from the same set contained straights in the middle.
