Default Re: QTo favorite over 2\'s

[ QUOTE ]
Hi. If I had to be in a preflop race to the river with one of these hands, I would take the pair of twos with NO hesitation! On coinflip type races I would always prefer the one currently in the lead preflop. I agree that the odds favor the QTo very slightly. But that QTo (no matter how imposing it looks) HAS to improve to win...and the pair can do the job on its own. (This assumes that the board does not produce 4 of a kind.) Have a nice day!

This is a huge error in thinking. Do you also prefer the 22 against 9 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]T [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] with a board of 7 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]8 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]K [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] because the 9T still has to catch?
