How to use aces odds.

These tables are not going to be of much use to you whilst you play, but it is useful information on the probabilities of hands with aces turning up at your table.

The most useful information from these aces odds tables is that the likelihood of a player being dealt an ace increases with the number of players at the table.

The likelihood of another player holding an ace if you hold an ace yourself table (top right) is interesting. There is a fairly high probability that another player at a 9-seater table holds an ace if you do as well. This means that we should be cautious when dealt weak aces and should fold them in early position. There is a chance that we were the only player at the table holding an ace, but we are saving ourselves more money in the long run for when we come up against another player with a better ace than ours.

Playing aces in Texas Hold'em.

An ace is the highest ranking card in Texas Hold'em and can be played either high or low. This means that if you are dealt an ace preflop, there is a fair chance that you hold one of the strongest hands at the table. If you are all-in with an opponent and they do not have a pocket pair or a better ace, you are the favorite to win the hand.

However, you should be careful to not become overly attached to the hand when you are dealt an Ace, because there is a fair chance that you will lose a sizeable proportion of your stack if you get into a hand with another player that holds a better ace than you (e.g. A9 vs AQ).

Be careful to not overvalue hands with aces, as they can get you in to a lot of trouble if you do not have a good kicker.

In case you don't already know, poker is a game of maximizing wins (when you have the best hand) and minimizing loss (when you don't have the best hand).

If I recorded the last 100 times I had pocket aces, I would probably find that they won the pot around 60% of the time.

It is highly beneficial if you can find a hand that holds up that frequently. But the number of times it won is somewhat irrelevant.

What is relevant is how much I won or lost with them.

Same Hand, Two Different Scenarios

I recall one particular night where an opponent encapsulated what I'm talking about.

He raised preflop from a middle position and I called in a late position with QJ.

The flop came .

He bet and I raised. I just wanted to test him out a bit.

He thought for a moment, then called.

On the turn, a fell and he checked, so I checked behind him.

On the river, a fell which may have completed a straight draw (if I had it).

We both checked the river and he had . In total, he won 4 small bets from me with pocket aces when he was a fairly large favourite.

He simply put the handbrake on too easily.

Pocket Aces — Again

Later that night, this same player was dealt a pair of aces — again.

He raised preflop and three players called. The flop came .

After the bet, the pot was raised and then re-raised. He then proceeded to check and call them the whole way, even after the turn was a and the river was a repeat 10.

By the action on the flop and turn, it was obvious that a pair of aces had almost no chance of winning the pot.

How Much Has He Won / Lost?

When he had the aces against me, he won 4 small bets.
When he had the aces against three opponents on a dangerous board, he lost 5 small bets and two large bets.

So while the aces won and lost the same amount of times, he lost money overall.

Then one night in the mid ’90s, I had a dream that I put $20 in a slot machine and won a huge jackpot. Shortly after that dream, I went to the casino, put $20 in the slot machine and won $15,000. From that point on, I switched almost exclusively to slot machines. It was a bigger, faster win, and I liked that I could isolate myself more. Slot machine success stories for beginners.

The 'Profitability' of Pocket Aces

In the long term, I look at the profitability of my pocket aces rather than the number of times they win or lose.

To maximize profit with them, I make a conscious effort to minimize my losses when I am clearly going to lose a showdown.

At the end of the day, if I lose less with AA, my profit on them will be much greater.

I wish to quickly discuss a few techniques you can use to determine whether it's time to fold pocket aces.

Define Your Hand Early

(Do it when it's still cheap to do so)

Here is a pot which came up the other night.

I was against a fairly tight player who knows exactly what he was doing when it comes to Texas hold'em.

Let's call him 'X'.

Before the flop, X raised from a middle-late position after everyone folded.

I put X on a steal with a mediocre hand like A-9 or perhaps KJ.

A loose player between us called and I reraised on the button with AA. Both players called.

The flop came Q-10-2. X checked, the loose player bet, and I raised.

X then re-raised. The loose player and I both called.

On the turn, a 7 fell and X came out betting. The loose player called and I folded.

Why Did I Fold?

Now many may think that this was a fairly big lay down on my part, but it really wasn't.

I knew X well and I knew tha
