I don't associate the flop with my starting hands. Maybe I didn't understand you very well, but in my case I have a range of hands with which I play, but necessarily taking into account my position at the table, the stage of the tournament and the characteristics of the opponents at the table. That is, if my cards are strong enough, then, taking into account the flop, I will consider different game scenarios.Me: AKx. As due to it's value most of the times the pot get too big preflop.
The situation is the same with a couple of nines or a dozen. A jack, queen, king or ace are dealt on the flop and you just give up, especially if it's a multipotMe: AKx. As due to it's value most of the times the pot get too big preflop.
JJ. A little over 50% chance of an A,K or Q on the flop. It's both tricky to navigate and disheartening when one of those cards does come. It's especially bad if there was a lot of action pre-flop, and you think your opponent has a narrow range of premium hands, or if you're something like 4-way having raised from early position and got 3 callers.
Just happened with me in a tournament, I was on the other side, lol
JJ from one of the villains, me and other with AKx and the other villain with AQx, JJ got it (unfortunately for me)
