board coverage

hello all, please forgive the question being so vague. Its just i was watching a video last night about cash game poker, and the dude kept mentioning board coverage.

any one got any links to some good information on board coverage??

Peace ^^

I don't think I've heard it phrased exactly as "board coverage" before, but my guess is that they were referring to how well the players' cards fit in with the community cards. So, a player with 7s5s on a flop of 8dAs6s has good board coverage because his hand gives him a lot of ways to connect to good hands. Now, without seeing the video, I can't say for sure this is what they were talking about. But that's my guess.

Maybe you're thinking of board texture?

cheers for the input guys,
@Sohmurr yeah i think your right, i cant seem to find any information on it so its probably just some sort of generic term for connecting with community cards,i agree

Sohmurr is right
It´s a about connecting hands and the community cards not used often but some poker tv analists or "commentators" like innovate
They need (in some cases) demonstrate that their knowledge are broader than those of other
