53o

Hey guys. What is it with 53o? I've heard that it has mystical powers and that one should play it as if they have AA. I tried it today on Holdempoker $0.15/$0.30 limit...

Pocket cards: 3H, 5S

PRE-FLOP
Pops-- folds, nes_sum_sar folds, Hyasintti folds, penttitommi calls $0.15, El Viajero bets $0.30, Onthero folds, ado89 folds, johnluck1(SB) calls $0.20, Tj.40 (BB) calls $0.15, penttitommi calls $0.15.

FLOP [board cards 7D,AC,2C ]
johnluck1 checks, Tj.40 checks, penttitommi checks, El Viajero bets $0.15, johnluck1 folds, Tj.40 folds, penttitommi folds.

SHOWDOWN
El Viajero wins $1.30.

I must say it doesn't always work though! I lost heavy twice the other day with 53o. Do you have any advice about when and how to play this hand?

Umm, when you're BB in an unraised pot?

equity (%) win (%) tie (%)
Hand 1: 36.2648 % 33.16% 03.10% { 5d3s }
Hand 2: 63.7352 % 60.64% 03.10% { random }

Thank you!!! Lesson one.

53os = poop
dont play it i don't even know why we're discussing this lol

i tend to enjoy the hand when i am inebriated.

I try to play it like you did there Dorkus but as I play limit rings it's hard to shake off the limpers.
