Title: Sixes Post by: The Camel on October 24, 2013, 12:13:20 AM Now 66 (or 77 for that matter) is ALOT less complex and troublesome.
Creep into the pot as cheaply as possible and if you don't hit another 6 (or 7) on the flop you can safely fold with no further damage to your stack. But if you do make three of a kind on the flop, bet it strongly is my advice. You'd die if someone hit a straight or a flush to beat you out of YOUR pot.

Wish someone had told me this when i first started. Sets are good prefer 77 to 66 though Title: Re: Sixes Post by: Rexas on October 24, 2013, 03:49:28 AM 7s 7h is my absolute favourite hand. Prettiest hand in the deck imo. Also,
flopping a set does NOT entitle you to win the pot :D Title: Re: Sixes Post by: SuuPRlim on October 24, 2013, 03:51:47 AM Great stuff! I've had another idea as well Kieth...
PERHAPS the flop might come 457 and you could consider a bet to try and win the pot right there and then (dont let his Queen Jack make a bigger pair on you!) and if he continues to stick around or has a better hand somehow you could hit an 8 or a 3 and have a run, which would almost definitely be the best hand. But if it comes Q93 then we're gonna make like a hockey player, and smash our hockey stick angrily into our opponents face to demonstrate our disapproval at the hand not panning out as we'd hoped.

A little bit gung ho for my liking. Maybe if I've had a few beers I'd try this.
