A little validation...

[tchang]

I'm playing on UB right now, just to see some hands, think about certain situations. One thing I'm noticing is that I'm folding hands like K2 and A6 to one bet, or if I'm in big blind, two bets. Seems like whenever I fold these crappy hands, something usually comes up, like K2x or A6x on the flop. I know that usually hands like the above won't hit, and therefore I shouldn't call with them... right?

Right.

You can easily call with these hands if:

1. You own a house or car

2. You are willing to lose it (them) playing poker

Otherwise, I would suggest reading some hand histories on this forum, and not playing these hands.

Good luck

No, there is a secret algorythm being used online that detects when the BB folds K2 and forces the flop to come K2x. Of course, if you decide to play it, a different algorythm is used and the flop comes 772 for the guy who is playing 72o.

Exactly!.

In other words: "You can't win, you can't break even, you can't stay away from the game".

Well, its even worse than that.

Even if you DO hit, you're likely to lose, and lose much more than you would have won. With three or more other players in the pot, it is likely that there is another ace out there with a better kicker. This is known as being dominated.

Muck these hands as a general rule.
