Da Boss Poker

A lot of players will say not to raise when you have an Ace-Queen before the flop in Texas Holdem limit if the move will not kick other players out of play.  This move however displays a lack of understanding of the card values and a sort of tightness that may not be too profitable.

You will see A-Q among the best of hands preflop of all the possible hands that you can get.  If you are playing poker against players who will play 4-4 or offsuit 8-7, then make sure you get them into two rounds of betting. Make sure you attract them to put in more money when you make the flop, liket a Q2J or AK6. These kinds of players will want to see the next cards especially when several players call on their cards.

In poker, different cards make different amounts of money. It does not necessarily follow that the best hands will be best in terms of profitability.

Remember that if you have an offsuit Ace-Queen, you have to put in the money early to kill the chances of the other speculative hands that may make stronger finishing hands and want money in post flop. Yes high suited top cards are the gold of the game but off suit can be treated as silver which can also bring in some money.
