Poker Guru Lessons (archive) - 5-14 DAILY POKER WISDOM PokerGuru - 14.05.2009, 07:53 Post subject: 5-14 DAILY POKER WISDOMHello my Special Ones!
Please keep in mind always that most players over-estimate the value of their hands.
Remember that it ALMOST always takes a hand as high as 3 of a kind to win a Texas Hold'Em hand.
Two pairs, if high enough, will also win once in a while, but I never bet heavily on anything less than 3 of a kind!
Yes, there are exceptions, like a winning one pair, but don't count on them!
You already know, but I will repeat it for the newer members: One of my favorite statements is that an Ace, not easy to pair up, is no more than high card, and is beaten by a little old pair of trifling deuces!
Your Guru, who, as long as my own poker career remains highly successful, will always be pitching out at you REMINDERS! Just like I am always re-reading my own notebooks to get valuable reminders for myself!char1984 - 15.05.2009, 02:11 Post subject: yes as I have mentioned many times before how many times I have been beaten with my pair of aces to 3 of a kind so I try to remember the 3 of a kind remedy...
