Best luck @ the tables

So you have to bet accordingly to that giving bad odds to a weaker hand, if a weaker hand calls and gets lucky with the community cards creating a better made hand bad luck. It means the a`ces were not played corectly. Just my opinion.

powerful hand? NO, it is the best STARTING hand,
it still has to rely on the remaining cards, to be powerful
it contains no power
because your opponent, does not see those cards


bet accordingly?
when you have pushed all-in preflop
you have not bet accordingly
you have not seen any other cards
you are only a favorite, and favorites dont always win


I am not trying to slam you
but, w/o more info, your statement is flawed
info-info-info
if you have the right info on your opponent
ANY TWO cards are the most powerful cards, you can have

I'm much more inclined to slow play them but have often slow played myself out of the hand.

the only good hand is the one that wins!:p
