I wonder how manny times you lost coin flips in a row for me its like 10 times

O yeah dont you think over cards seem to win alot more then small pocket pairs like pocket 44 vs QK

Just wondering

Several hundred but I was flipping in a hotel room with Teddy IceMan Monroe....Now I realize that's a bad move

yea i don't try to get in with coin flips but i do loose a lot of 80 /20's even i would be happy if i held those 8 out of 10 times like i have a.k vs a guys a.2 or something like that or i got pocket jacks and he has pocket 7's i personally am not a big fan of low pocket pairs because you are 50% at best in those hands

you should only go for coin flips when:

1. You're in a tourney and have a pretty big stack and facing a short stack.
2. You're in a tourney and you're short stacked.

Hmm... lol. Well, thats what I usually do anyways.

Yes, I agree - that's about the standard, solid strategy for coin flips.

I'd add 3. You're in a cash game and have a good chunk of fold equity.
