Message: [QUOTE="Alex Houngan, post: 7099089, member: 299159"] In practice, suited hands generally have better equity and playability post-flop due to their potential to make flushes, which can be very profitable in deep-stacked situations. However, when playing with a short stack and facing an all-in decision, the difference between suited and offsuit hands becomes less significant, as raw hand strength matters more than playability. That said, if you are going to play suited hands, they are much stronger when they include an ace, as they allow you to make the nut flush. Personally, I think many players overvalue suited hands, especially weak ones, which can lead to trouble when dominated by better flushes. While suited hands add some equity, they should not be the main reason for playing a hand—position, stack size, and opponent tendencies are often more important. [/QUOTE]
