Ok. So, we've talked about very good hands and we talked about good hands to see the flop with. Let's talk about everything else. Well, pretty much everything else you should throw them away. Otherwise, you're probably in for most likely, a bloodbath. Now, the way that works is. I'm just going to deal some random hands. I've just shuffled, I'm going to deal randomly. Here's queen, ten, four, deuce. I guarantee you; I have seen people play that. But, why? Nothing is working together. Here's ace, ten, five, deuce. The ace is unsuited. You want to throw that away. So, throw these two hands away. What comes off next? Look at that. Eight, six, pair of fours. This is junk, throw it away. These are all hands I've seen people play. If you can avoid playing bad hands and wait for a doubled paired hand, like this jacks and sevens. I would see the flop with jacks and sevens. I definitely would. But, did you see it took dealing in four hands for me to deal out one that was halfway decent. So, be the guy or the gal who sits and folds most of their hands until you get something that you can really play. And, have a better chance of taking the other players chips.
