I just need to confirm that I have it right with the range of hands form JTs to 54s, as stated in the "Getting Started" book by Ed Miller, as I am implementing this in a training program for my own use (written in C#).

Now, I believe the range of hands from JTs to 54s to be:

54......56 57 58 59 5T 5J
64..........67 68 69 6T 6J
74..............78 79 7T 7J
84...................89 8T 8J
94.......................9T 9J
T4...........................TJ
J4

** all suited, of course **

If I get the range wrong, then the program will not be of much use :(

Eh... I haven't read the book, but 54s-JTs means all suited connectors which would be: 45s, 56s, 67s, 78s, 89s, 9Ts, JTs

It's probably covered in the book, but lower than 45s and you have fewer straight possibilities and the same with higher than JTs, although they have more pair value.

You also don't lose much in going from just suited connectors to suited cards with one gap (i.e. from 98s to T8s) but any more gaps or unsuited and they drop off in value a lot.

LOL, what a dumb arse I am.

Sorry, got myself a major hangover, and that has resulted in a negative IQ.

Doh

Suited connectors = suited cards without a gap, as far as the table in the book is concerned, doh

Sorry, stupid post, stupid hangover

Yeah, that is all covered in the book. Bloody good book, too.

Thanks for the info :)
