Default Re: Suited Aces in 6-max

In fact A6 is not much better it is not even better than A5, as pointed out earlier in the thread and discussed in HFAP (?) A5 is ahead of A6.
Poor example, true for just about every other example like this though.

Peter Rus has also posted some figures regarding high card strength (hands like K7o compared to T9s etc.) though not specifically addressing this issue. I think Peter had some rough formula for calculating the equivalent value based on kicker, like J9 is as good as Q7 etc.

Suitedness and connectedness do add value to hands, even SH, I only have to look through my PT database to see that. It is frequently overestimated, particularly by the bad players.
