Default Re: Moses (Custer) hand and How do I watch these hand histories?

[W]ith AJ or AQ, you'll flop top pair a lot.

[/ QUOTE ]A lot? Must be less than 1/3 of the time since you hit a pair about 1/3 of the time and sometimes when you hit your Queen or Jack, there will be a higher non-Ace on the board.

[ QUOTE ]
And when you do flop top pair, you can be somewhat confident that you have the best hand. With 66, you almost never have that confidence unless you flop a set.

[/ QUOTE ]
No confidence, perhaps, but you'll be ahead about 2/3 of the time, right?

I realize you're out of position post-flop, but I've found that people fold to a continuation bet a lot. (Something I wasn't as aware of before I put that stat on my PokerAce display.)

You'll be ahead 2/3 of the time with AJ or AQ too. And you'll get people to fold to a continuation bet sometimes as well. But those times that you do flop top pair, you'll have some idea about your hand. Where as with 66, you almost always have no idea.
