  • Pre-flop, post-flop or in the end?

    Pre-flop 87 was a slight edge at 52%.
    Post flop 87 was 50% while 22 was 40%.
    Turn 22 was 77% favorite.
    In the end 22 wins with the full house.
  • Player 1 is ahead until the turn, 52/45 preflop, 50/41 post flop
    Player 2 moves ahead on the turn 77/14 and of course wins after the river.

    Seems kinda routine, is this a trick question?

    Funny...I walked into a conversation the other day..two were arguing about which hand was better preflop...they were arguing pocket 4's I think...vs. 9 10 suited. I got three really strange looks when I said I would take the 9 10 anytime...Three refused to believe that suited connectors in that range were better than a small pocket pair...as the pair is a "made" hand...but yet, they still wouldn't play money on it..lol
