I love those little suited connectors - in NL only. In limit, throw them away every single time. Also, in a tourney, you can only play them when you can afford to (when your stack is much latger than the blinds).

With that said, I do not recommend that new players play those hands, because they often require good post flop play, which new players do not have. Stick to the top 10 hands first (20 max).

It takes a lot of experience befor you can learn to play any two cards well... learn the basics first.

Oh, and I am also a strong believer that people should learn limit before NL. They are very different games, yes, but you learn a lot of hugely important fundamental concepts in limit that I think are necessary to be successful in NL.

I am a very good NL player but I lack skill in limit poker. I do not know what it is but in limit poker i rarely have much success. Same as cash game, i do not have much success in them, only tournament play.

But to get back to it a lot of player like to raise with suited connectors when the play NL tonarrow down the field and play heads up or maybe three way. But a lot of pros will say that those types of hands are best when there are many people in the pot.

Its really not what anyone else can tell you. Or even what any pro says, athough yes they do have the knowledge its basically how you feel best playing and how you have the most success. You gotta know when youre beat and be able to lay the hand down. Trimming your losses is a very bg part of poker learn it and you will find success.

Find your own bes playing style an learn to perfect it.
