The Worst Poker Advice: "Never Fold Aces"
A lot of people might want to disagree with me on this, but some will know that this is very true.
I agree on the fact that pocket aces is strongest starting hand in poker but they are not invicible. I've seen players lose with pocket aces, I myself personally have lost with pocket aces.
Its not always about how strong what you hold is, its about the situation you're in.
Jusy imagine this situation;
- You hold A♦️A♠️
- The board reads 9♦️10♦️J♣️Q❤️
Your opponent shoves all in, what are you gonna do at this point.
Are your Aces still the best hand here, definately not.
Many beginners become emotionally attached to pocket aces and refuse to let them go, even when every sign points to them being beaten.
The best thing is to make decisions based on logic and what the board holds.
Its true pocket aces wins more than any other atarting hands, but know they don't always guarantee victory.
I wish I had folded my pocket aces in the Wednesday freeroll today. Some bingo player called superman's went all in with 99 and immediately hit a 9
Then next hand beat Aces with QQ that hit a Q on the river
Why play logically I should just play any 2 like everyone else
