Ed Miller on another thread wrote, "2-2 and 3-3 may well be the easiest hands to play postflop in hold em. 'You flop your set you jam. You miss your set you fold' get's it right the majority of the time. I can't really say that for other hands. So, postflop skill matter least with these hands. . . as long as the beginner knows that general rule, he can play them almost as well as an expert."

small piece of common sense....I know Mcevoy said the same thing in a NL tourney book one time (either his or the one with TJ) -

you swing and you hit, you bet / you miss, you muck...

pretty easy all right.

Yea, you'd think so. Of course, some experts like to be non-conformists and make plays like this (http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/showflat.php?Cat=&Board=mediumholdem&Number=146282 7&Forum=All_Forums&Words=2c%202s&Searchpage=0&Limi t=25&Main=1462827&Search=true&where=bodysub&Name=1 2&daterange=1&newerval=2&newertype=m&olderval=&old ertype=&bodyprev=#Post1462827)

I can only pray to be at Clark's level of thought one day.
