According to this site http://www.freepoker.tv/texas-holdem-hands.shtml , these are top 20 HE hands.

I would rather have AKo than AQs, even the poker calculator says it's a better hand heads up. Am I missing something in why these are ranked the way they are?

Thanks,
Cro

That chart is ridiculous. Anyone who would prefer AJs over AKo is a fool.

A co-worker of mine received a promo package from OddsMaker.com. This same chart was printed on their business card. Guess the marketing guys decided to use the first hit in a google search. Very Happy

Thanks for confirming that it's crap.

Agreed.

I probably would have ate up this crap about a year ago, I'm glad i've had enough experience to be able to think on my own.

Hmmmmmmmm......

I wonder if there's a list of people who actually use this chart somewhere.

And a list of where they play. Wink
