Texas Holdem How To Play Hands Fingers
None of the strategy guides for the specific hands above are going to prove to be essential to improving your game (hence the lower than average utility ratings), as playing solid Texas Hold'em is all about evaluating the situation and using your own logic to make the most profitable decision possible.
Playing good Texas Hold'em is not about waiting for certain hands and then playing according to a set of rules. A monkey can do that, and I'm fairly sure that I could beat a monkey at Poker.
But still, that's not to say that these hand guides can't be a little useful. The article on how to play small pocket pairs is one of the most informative articles in the section as it touches upon additional mathematical concepts such as pot odds and implied odds.
Other useful Hold'em hand strategy articles.
I like the drawing hands and playing drawing hands with aggression articles for the same reason why I like the small pocket pairs article - it teaches other important concepts about Texas Holdem that will be more valuable to you than rules and guidelines for specific hands.
Anyway, that's enough of me lecturing you on why playing according to specific rules is filthy and horrible. Just enjoy these articles and try to avoid thinking about decisions from inside a box.
