I just watched this compilation. Nice way to see many hands.

From this viewing, I’ve really internalized this lesson:
Value of high card in small tables (no one has pair)
Value of pocket pairs against no pairs..
Lots of pocket pairs taking the pot when it’s head to head (and most people at the table fold)
vs. lots of suckers going all in with 2 face cards. (even pros.....#1 way to knock yourself out....)
Seems like AK or AQ or whatever....low odds to make a match. (Or only 50/50 against a pocket pair)
You’ll win if no pairs on the table, and it’s high card.....But tough call to check-raise with only unmatched face cards.
