Default Re: And I thought my advice was bad...

The problem with new players and high-only hands is that they tend to lose more with them than they win. Obviously when you connect with a set, it is usually a profitable situation. But when the board comes Q92r or even 25J, etc., how should you play? You need experience to handle these situations correctly - new players tend to indiscriminately showdown aces, etc., not realizing what sort of high hands tend to develop by the river in a 3+ handed pot.
