Default Re: Hypothetical question that will blow your mind.

Newsflash: You don't need the NUTS to win a hand, Sherlock! Especially against 1 or 2 opponents!
Especially in NL, whence you can protect your hand!

You are saying you'd rather see your opponents hands PF in NL? OK, picture this...

You hold AA and your opponent holds KK... isn't he still going to win like 20% of the time? You have no idea what the flop will be.

How would you play this? Build the pot PF, on the flop, and on the turn? Great...and he calls down... and here comes the rivercard! Voila! It's a King! Congratulations, you've pumped the pot and lost to lady luck!

Getting dealt 34 and knowing the flop will be AQ25A ahead of time is far more valuable. (Note, you dont have the nuts here, but you will crush 1 or 2 opponents almost every time)
