Queen Six Offsuit
 
What if, in EVERY FUTURE HOLDEM HAND YOU PLAYED FOR THE REST OF YOUR LIFE, you were doomed to receive the following two cards...

Queen of Clubs and 6 of hearts.

(and, yeah, none of your opponents will ever catch on that that is the only hand you get)

What would optimal strategy be?
What types of games would you search out?
Could you win in the long run with only Q6o?

What's the analysis for this?

Optimal stategy would be to never play holdem again. Hopefully, you'll get better cards at another form of poker.

Theres no way you could win in the long run with this hand ... plain and simple.

Optimal stragy?

Sell house and all other major assets. Sell all liquid assets, including stocks, bonds, mutual funds, etc.

Go to lawyer. Draw up really tight agreement where you give the proceeds of these sales to a corporate trustee, and you can't touch them, save for living expenses, necessities etc.

Cause otherwise, you are going to lose EVERYTHING.

Or, you could quit playing poker.

I would play only heads up matches.

Hi Sandwich,

The question is irrelevant because it couldn't happen to anyone. Every hand I'm dealt is <font color="red">6</font>[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]2[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]. Thus, the Six of Hearts is already accounted for. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

They'll really never catch on? Blind man's bluff it is.

i dont know how to do the math, but i would think that you could at least win in the long run if you could play heads up against a passive opponent. it will win 37% of the time against any pair/any ace and it does better against random hands winning about 51% of the time if it is heads up.

you would be a losing hold em play, but imagine the prop bets you could win, especially against the heavy math types like caro or sklansky... i would be rich.
