Abdul Jalib used it to determine the best starting hands from each position in a typical game. AJo is a fold UTG.

I'm curious about the simulation conditions he used to come to this conclusion.

Folding is too tight for a "typical game." In the real world, AJo is a winning hand from all positions even for average (losing) players. See the PokerRoom EV Stats.

I don't get it. All I ever hear is people talking about getting their AA beat in online play - yet this chart is telling me that it is the best possible hand to hold.

How is this possible?





But seriously - thank you for that link - that is a great resource to have.
