But with AK we need to start being cautious preflop. When we have either KK or QQ we should still do good.

In the worst-case scenario, we will have 77.5% to win. Odds change significantly if more players are involved, but at the end of the day, if we get all the money in preflop, we should be happy.

While pocket aces are a definite favorite against any other hand preflop, it doesn’t mean it’s guaranteed to win. Pocket pairs from 22 right up to AA can be played profitably with the right strategy, even if hands. I prefer to play my AK a bit more passively, and I will not be blindly throwing my stack in the middle to gamble for what is around 50% to win against what opponent wants to go with all-in. Pocket pairs are a favorite type of hand for many players. Often it comes down to personal playing style. When it comes to AK, it depends on the opponent we are up against. With QQ we should be good against the majority, but the tightest people. While some players play tighter (they don’t play many hands) than others a good rule of thumb is pocket kings and aces are always strong enough to get all the money in the middle preflop. For now, know when the opponent goes all-in preflop, he will have a decent hand unless they are aggressive players willing to bluff their stack. I rather play rigged poker to make 85% of the money i should than spend my entire life working without being ever able to earn half of it.I will go deeper into the strategy in another article as it is a massive topic on its own. How in hell would i care about it as long as i still can make money out of it ? This doesn't mean that you cannot win, not at all. It is the opbvious ability for them to do so and the enormous financial interest they have in doing so. In the end why i am actually convinced online poker is rigged is not the bad beat or whatever of the game itself. Especially if your servers are located in a country where noone will ever be able to investigate them. If they really want to do it, they just can do it and there is noway in hell anyone will ever be able to prove it.īeing myself a programmer and having worked a lot on data compression with statistics, I have no doubt that you can actually do kind of whatever you want. My opinion worth what it worth and i know that most successful online player won't agree with me.Īnyway, imho I actually believe online poker is and will ever be more ore less rigged in various clever and subtiles ways.
