Re: A Tournament Hand not to be Believed
Yes,
In a lot of games this hand is far superior to any other hand out there. First, a guy with a low hand has [censored]...
What 2s, 3c, 4c, Ks. Piece of [censored], you are drawing to the second nuts both ways unless you KNOW your opponent has 4 A's.
A lot of people lay the above hand down to a raise. I do. Obviously if I knew my opponent had 4 A's I wouldn't, but it is a piece of [censored]. I would lay down KKQJ double suited to a raise as well. 61% of the time a low comes, and you don't have a chance at it.
I definitely would never limp with AAAA, I also wouldn't even play it if there were too many limpers to me, but this hand definitely makes everyone else's hand look horrible.
Take a look at the hand that beat his [Th 5d 9h 3d]... an absolute piece of [censored]. Obviously it isn't worth making a move in this game against a field that has no clue, but against real O8 players, this is an EASY raise.
Am I missing something or don't you understand that A's are very very important in O8.
