Today’s poker advice is on how to play suited connectors preflop and postflop. Links mentioned in the podcast are below ⬇️

Suited connector 10 commandments

1 - play them in games where it’s deep and vs players who will stack off with over pairs
2 - open raise them in games with tight players behind that will fold a fair amount to raises
3 - Play only in late position
4 - Mix raises and calls preflop based on player type, stack depth etc. Only Call if on the button. All other positions always raise or fold. Mix based on suits or how good you are running.
5 - Don’t raise if more than 3 limpers. It becomes too expensive. Either fold if not on button. Or call on button. When you do call be very aware of reverse implied odds of getting over flushed.
6 - Fold to 3b when OOP. Call in position if deep enough.
7 - Release when you only catch one pair
8 - Continue aggressively with draws that are massive
9 - bluff to win the pot when you can because of position
10 - never 4 bet with suited connectors except on rare occasions where you have some strong blocker like KQ suited. Even then it’s not advised except against the loosest aggro opponents and when your image is tight and invincible.

Have you ever thought you had the odds so you must call? Have you ever heard someone say they were priced in? Let’s talk about that poker fallacy.

Today’s poker tip is the basics of playing suited connectors. Links mentioned in the podcast are below ⬇️

Suited connector basics
1. **Position Awareness**: Always try to play suited connectors in later positions, as it's important to have as much information as possible before making your move.

2. **Understanding Pot Odds**: Be aware of the pot odds. Suited connectors have high implied odds, but if the cost to play isn't justified by the potential payout, consider folding. The deeper the effective stacks the better. 15 to 1 in position. 20 to 1 out of position.

3. **Player Tendencies**: Consider the tendencies of your opponents. Suited connectors fare better against opponents who will pay you off with AA or TPTK when you hit your hand. The best players in the game can make folds and get away from hands. These are the type of players to play suited connectors against vs a raise.

4. **Board Texture**: Post-flop, be aware of the board texture. Suited connectors are aiming for straights, flushes, or combo draws, so evaluate how well the board matches with these objectives. Don’t pile money in the pot because you flopped 3rd pair.

5. **Post-flop Aggression**: Don't be overly aggressive post-flop if you miss. If you have the betting lead you can continuation bet favorable flops for your range. You can also barrel strong draws and combo draws. It's better to let the hand go if you don't flop big hands or draws or if the board is unfavorable.

6. **Hand Reading**: Try to put your opponents on a range of hands. This will help you evaluate whether your flush or straight is likely to be the best hand if you hit. One of the pitfalls of suited connectors is getting over flushed. Being aggressive preflop, and post flop on favorable boards helps to get better flush draws to fold.

7. **Balancing Your Range**: Include suited connectors in your range to balance it and not be overly predictable to your opponents. You don’t have to do this from every position. But in late positions they can be added into your raising range and will help keep all players guessing. Even the good ones.

8. **Bluffing**: Use suited connectors as bluffing tools when the board texture allows for it and you have position. This allows you to win more often without hitting a straight or flush. For example, if you flop a straight or flush draw and are in a position when you had to call the flop instead of raise it, you can raise turns when middle or bottom card pairs. You will pick up some extra folds in this spot and you still have your straight and flush out when it doesn’t work. Make sure it’s a board where villain is capped at one pair.

Today’s poker strategy is a primer on playing suited connectors in low stakes cash games. All links mentioned in the show are at the bottom of this ⬇️

Introduction
* What are suited connectors?
Two cards in sequential order of the same suit. 7❤️6❤️ etc
* Why are suited connectors so important?
They add deception to our preflop raising range, they have playability across multiple streets, they are easy to get away from when they miss, and they can stack opponents with great implied odds.
* What are the different ways to play suited connectors?
Primarily you should be aggressive with suited connectors from late positions. Avoid them from early position. You can also play them passively in certain situations preflop , mainly from the button.


Playing suited connectors preflop
* When should you play suited connectors preflop?
You want to mainly play suited connectors from late position and for a raise. You can do this over one or two limpers and use your position to win postflop a lot when called.

You can also use them to 3b later position pfr when they have a wider range. This allows you take it down preflop, flop big hands postflop , or use your position to win a portion of the time.
* How should you play suited connectors against different types of opponents?
Let’s assume you are on the button with 7❤️6❤️.
Vs a raise by a nit you should just call if stacks are deep enough to reward you when you hit against their very condensed range of hands. Raising them preflop would be bad because they open so tight they are never folding and will likely be coming over the top.

Vs a standard thinking player who has a more standard opening range you can 3b this spot when they are opening from layer positions at the table like LJ, HJ, CO etc

Vs a LAG you can mix calls or 3b. Preferably 3b when stacks are deep and you can punish their wide range on many flops even when you miss.

* What are some common mistakes to avoid when playing suited connectors preflop?
Always calling and going super multi-way. You open yourself to reverse implied odds against better straights.

Not 3b when the circumstances are right.

Not raising with them preflop.

Trying to play them too much from EP like utg and utg1 etc

Playing suited connectors postflop
* How should you play suited connectors after the flop?
You should be aggressive with big draws especially when the board doesn’t favor your opponent. Many times you can just win when they cbet on bad boards for their range and take it down. On boards like this hands as weak as gutshots and top pair with back doors etc are good.

In boards where your opponent has a nutted range it doesn’t make much sense to raise as you never win with a fold.

Raise and playyour best draws very aggressively. Pairs and flush draws. Straight and flush draws. Etc.

* What are some common mistakes to avoid when playing suited connectors postflop?
Always calling with draws. Especially when multi-way. This allows better draws to come along too.

Conclusion
* Tips for improving your suited connector play
Raise and 3b more preflop
Be more aggressive postflop
Be aggressive with strong draws
Be aggressive on boards bad for Villian

From Jeremiah Hawks
Can you give advice on how to play AK? I am one of those people who hates this hand. It almost never hits and I feel like I just lose money playing it.
1- AK is a premium hand. It is the nut no pair. It removes half the combinations of AA and KK.
2- Play it aggressively. Always open raise and 3b preflop. You want to be heads up. 3 ways at worst.
3- Continuation bet a wide variety of “safe” flops. Big small small unconnected. Medium small small unconnected. And big draws like gutshot to broadway. Nut flush draws. Overs with the backdoor nut flush draw.
4- Keep barreling turn when you hit. When you pick up a card that gives you more outs . Or when a card hits that is in your range.

Most hands are not pairs. Your opponent will miss the flop most of the time. You need to pick up your fair share of the flops when you don’t hit your A or K. Odds are your A high is still the best hand. Playing AK and only hoping you get top pair on the flop is the wrong way to play this hand.
