In Hold'em Poker, sklansky says A66 and KK6 are good flops if you have AK. I would normally think A66 and KK6 would be bad flops because someone might have a 6 or a K. Am I wrong, or am I right?
Also KT9 is listed as a fair flop for AJ. I would think 9TQ would be better because of the open ended straight draw, instead of the gutshot.
He says QT3 is a good flop for KJ, better than K/images/graemlins/spade.gifT/images/graemlins/spade.gif4/images/graemlins/diamond.gif or K88. Straight draw better than 2 pair or pair of Kings?
He also seems to infer that seeing a pair(866 when you have AK) on the flop is better than seeing all the same suit on the flop. I understand that flushes are higher rank, yet trips are much more common. If a pair falls on the flop, I would think it would be much more dangerous than three suit. Obviously Q's on flop would be much more dangerous than 6's on flop. But I still would think flushes are rarer than trip 6's.
