I like them, but lately they have been scattering chips a lot. Do you think it is worth playing with them in difficult situations?

I like them too, but they can antrap you to throw around with chips, especially when you see a flushdraw or a straight. Depends on the situation. 😊

In poker, suited connectors are not overrated, but they require careful handling, especially in certain situations. They have high potential for making straights and flushes, making them strong hands, but their effectiveness can depend on the stack, position, and aggression of opponents. In deeper stacks, they can be more profitable, as they allow a player to realize the potential of a straight or flush. In short stacks, against aggressive players, they are best avoided or played with caution.

I like to play them when I have a big stack, not so much with a smaller stack. They are fun to bust a player with AA.
