Re: Jd 4d preflop
 
I'm a little bit suprised this is a disucssion point. Surely any two hi/lo suited combo (Ks 2s, Qh 3h etc etc) is worth a call if the value is good in late position and nobody has opened the pot yet...no more to it? And that's only a cash game if you ask me!!!

come on guys - it makes 2 straights, 1 flush, 2 sets of quads, 6 sets of trips, countless two pair hands - you raise this [censored] up! +++++++EV

And there's always the possibility of winning a kicker war with trips, quads, or two pair on the board. That's like 20% extra value right there.

When I read the title of this thread, I thought to myself "this is going to be brilliant".

It was.

One thing no one has mentioned is that quite often either of the straights you make with this hand include an A -- and you get so much action from the LAGtards with an A on board that this hand's straight value alone is a virtual currency printing press.

What about cold calling raises? I think that there is real potential here as well. I mean, come on, I've seen people raise with stuff like:

AA
KK
QQ
JJ
TT
99
88
77
66
AKs
AKo
AQs
AQo
ATs
ATo
KQs
KQ

. . . to name just a few. If the flop comes with a Jack in it you are crushing all but the first four hands in the list, as well as other crappy stuff like 87s that those so-called LAG's are always raising with. Think how many times you are going to stack those over aggressive fools.
