- In the world of Texas Hold'em, mastering the strategic play of suited connectors can pose a considerable challenge! Despite being one of the prettiest hands in poker, it’s important to understand the intricacies of suited connectors and avoid the temptation to underplay or overplay each and every situation!
In this live poker webinar, PokerCoaching founder and head coach, Jonathan Little, is here to give you a deep understanding of some of the biggest mistakes you MUST avoid when playing your suited connectors!
One of the main complications that arises with suited connectors is the wide range of situations you may find yourself encountering at the poker table, both preflop, flop, turn & river! Due to the inherent nature of being very draw-heavy, both suited and connected, the complexity of suited connectors can quickly start to stack up!
As a result, there is no one-size-fits-all scenario, and being able to adapt on the fly is critical. Failure to take into account essential variables, including stack sizes, potential draws, table position, and the tendencies of opponents can lead to costly errors that will significantly impact your profit at the poker tables!
Mastering the art of playing suited connectors is fundamentally about recognizing the situations to avoid. The allure of suited connectors, with their aesthetically pleasing potential, can make folding that much harder. Remember to be patient and stay disciplined!
In order to take your poker game to the next level it is vitally important you learn all the nuances of the game.
Do you know what ranges of poker hands you should be playing from each position? When should you 3-bet, call or fold? When is the right time to make a hero call or a huge bluff? Do you know how to play preflop, flop, turn & river effectively and how should your poker strategy change depending on the street? What difference does it make if you are playing multi-way vs heads-up?

What’s YOUR favorite suited connector? 🤔
J10
67clubs
AK hehe, but now 56 too
Q10s
@@AlexD0513 yeah I feel like Q 10 kind of conceals the straight a little better than J 10.
Jonathan, I remember the praise that Jesus Ferguson was heaping on you in videos in the early 2000s. He said you were up and coming because is all the hard work and dedication you put into poker garnering success... He was right man. You've become a professor at this.
Not sure that’s who you want praise from, Jesus Ferguson and Howard Lederer are the true villains of the poker world, they are true scum bags, even Mike Postle is slightly less of a garbage human than those two. And that’s saying something
Not sure you want that praise, Ferguson and Lederer are the true villains of the poker world, truly they are scumbags
Thank so much, John!
For me as a college professor, that response to the tournament/cash question was the most relatable thing I've ever seen - I only wish I could respond the same sometimes, I'd literally potentially lose the whole class for the semester. Great to live vicariously LOL
Incredibly helpful video, both intro and main content is exactly what I needed to hear after days of brutal runouts, also I was doing mistakes left and right with SC's
Glad you enjoyed it!
So over the last six months, I’ve watched a lot of your videos and just recently subscribed to your service. I play at a 1-3 game recreationally on Sundays where I don’t think there are very many high IQ players
Literally thanks to you. I win probably four out of every five times and average about 12 big Blinds an hour profit. Literally all because of you. Thank you.
That's brilliant, congratulations!!
Thank you coach! we appreciate you ❤
You're so welcome!
Extremely helpful, thank you Jonathan!
Glad it was helpful!
You are sooooo patient with stupid questions 😊
Ty for all the content you provide
Truly appreciated
God bless you and your loved ones
You're very welcome and thank you, George!
I can't beat my local 1/3 game. It has a 10 percent rake capped at 15 dollars. I used to be a winning player many years ago but can't seem to win now. I am currently down 800 big blinds in this game over 26 sessions. Is this a downswing or is the rake killing me or am I just bad?
What do I think people do wrong with suited connectors? Here's a list of some things before you reveal: open them at too large a frequency from early to mid position, 3-bet with them at too large a frequency, call 3-bets while you're out of position too often with them. When deeper stacked, people should call 3-bets with them a bit more, and if in position + deep stacked, definitely call with them a bit more Vs 3-bets. Solvers sometimes call 4-bets with suited connectors but that's insane territory.
You can 3-bet a small frequency with them sometimes, but I reserve that play for being on the button
Amazing!!!
Thanks!
hey jonathan in an instance heads up in position against RFI what should your 3-bet sizing be when you have a hand that should 3-bet?
Have become from break even or over tight nit to tag crusher cuz of all your coaching keep up the vids and coaching thanx
Great to hear, Jeremy!
Excellent video! Thank you salty Mister!😂
thanks coach
You're welcome!
The idea of the variation of only having certain pieces be used as lockers sounds really fun actually
I see you made colorblind charts! Nice!
Just want to say thanks for the great training site! I got second place in a large tournament they run everyday it's only $16.50 but with over 1,300 people I got 2nd place paid $1,870. Excited to watch this overview about suited connectors!!
Must be Party 🥳 poker
Bovada
That is awesome!
What should we be doing against players that limp call 100% of hands they take to a flop? Sometimes they limp fold, but they will always limp cold call 3 and 4 bets with TT+ and AQ+ ? Should we just be opening much tighter?
This is great and all, but I’m confused. Is this for cash games or for tournaments?
I love suited connectors; T9s is my favorite hand. I recognized though that playing right it is very context sensitive. Coming up with a "here's how to play this hand" guide is tough.
Johnathan, I heard someone the other day say that poker is become more like chess in that every move has a best countermove.
I like playing gut-shots(s) over suited connectors.
I'm not getting notifications for these live events.
At 21 minute mark roughly. Always great content Mr. Little.
Thanks Jimmy!
I was going to say Playing suited connectors when your not very deep. They lose a lot of value when stacks aren't deep. The implied odds are where suited connectors get a TON of value. Also I love playing med-low suited connectors vs aggressive opponents. When they raise PF I just call. Then if I connect well with the flop. I play them according to how I think my opponent will react. I've stacked a lot of people playing hands like 65s or T9s.
Does the Rook stipulation mean I can't checkmate with a Rook either, since that is essentially capturing with a piece?
Comment section engaged!
Part two, when I’m playing I literally think to myself. What would Jonathan do
I mainly like J10s and 910s.
Suit connected!
Link to discord?
2-3 suited in UTG, ofc i open Jam all in
Being suited only increases your odds by 3%. I only call with suited connectors in multi way pots without re-raises in front of me and preferably in position to keep my bluff range intact.
Raising
I’m just not that discipline no more , trying to push my winning
limp too often or play them too often in general
The only "suited connectors" worth playing are: (1) 5-6 & 4-5 (2) Suited aces, a2-a5, a10-ak (3) suited Broadway cards down to 10-9. That's it, nothing else: really, it's just ridiculous to play a hand like 7-8
If I’m RFI from the button, I’ll open 7-8 suited every time. Not a huge deal if you fold it though
@@Muhahahahaz you have a glaring weakness in your game, then
@@LIONTAMER3D the Poker Coaching charts would disagree with you, but okay bud
Like I said, you can fold it if you really want to. It’s literally +EV on the button, so you’ll be missing some value (assuming you understand how to play it post-flop), but it’s not a huge deal
Either way, it’s not a “glaring weakness”. Please calm down, sir 😂
@@Muhahahahaz how would you know it's NOT a glaring weakness if you don't play in big games against skilled players? I could explain to you why it's a cash burning move, but something tells me you don't play cash games.
Cutton vs the butoff he said lol.
Too many flakes, they’re going to get a flush or straight flush
How to play suited connectors in most scenarios: Don't
Great tips. You should all be ashamed at how irritated you made JL! haha jk jk It was funny to watch 2 days later.
"Bugger" is a moderate swear in three UK lol
Johnathan, these charts are handy but unrealistic to use. How can anyone remember 80+ different charts? Each spot vs the other. When you add in the post flop and preflop you're adding another 150+ charts.
Just gotta learn a little bit at a time. The knowledge is essentially acquired cumulatively over time.
OK #1 thing is to call when its multi-player
Arghh you distracted me with the no capture rooks idea. On my to do list to modify a chess engine with this rule and see how I'd fair with it set on God level. Tbh I'd fancy my chances against even Magnus with him crippled like this. It would be a race to get my castles in the game, surely a line where you just push the rook pawns up the board would be hard to beat?
At my casino straight flush over straight flush is a jackpot hand. 15k+ jackpots. They should see a flop if at all possible.
How many people are in the field when the buy-in is $30k + ?
Not many.
@PokerCoaching Thank you for all you do for the community. You have helped my game and one day look forward to telling you in person.
Don't play them. But I would play them 100% of the time. Lol
Most people who haven't worked with a solver don't understand they're making breakeven/-EV decisions preflop with these hands all the time haha
Always nice to listen to a guy that tells listeners questions are basically dumb, cmon people, think, use your head, etc etc cause kids are having a morning…. Lol… there’s other coaches bro…. Nobody needs to be belittled
Yeah, let's criticize the guy that churns out premium content for free on a weekly basis and helps players worldwide because you feel belittled and your sensitive soul cant handle a bit of critique. If you don't like his content, watch your other coaches
Cutton vs. buttoff
Magnus would crush you - Hikaru Nakamura often plays a queen down vs International Masters and crushed them. Playing two rooks down is easier!
Jonathan is flabbergasted by people's stupidity. 🤣
This is not meant as an insult but Magnus could play 2 rooks down and beat any viewer of this podcast easily and he’s done it vs pretty high level 2000+ elo players
Absolutely, drunk magnus routinely crushes actual gms too
Magnus could not beat a 2000 elo giving odds of two rooks....
LMAO, "Is this for Cash Games or tournaments" GRRRRRRRR. This generation does not read :)
I think you’d get more subscribers if you didn’t seem to dislike the audience. Great content, but you always seem annoyed.
All teachers understand why 😮💨
So would I if every video I make someone asks if it is for cash or tournaments only.
Anyone too weak to handle his occasional grumpiness shouldn’t be playing Poker anyway 😂
(Then again, I suppose I should welcome the bad players to play… But it’s no loss if they never visit this channel)
He has to deal with a lot of hard headed and adversarial people
@@internetshaquille the poor teacher blames the student.
you can play gto and poercentages, but
you aint good enough to beat luck lol
I am not sure what you mean. All of the big winners have overcame luck in the long run, and some have run well below EV despite being up a lot.
i seen iditos win all the time, just calling, or not layihng down,
its not skills by them or you. if you call him an dloose.
jsut dont pay off whne you loose and get paid more when you win.
and play the bad play likek a bad player.
wat?
your way off, 87 % luck,
your oppenants can be stupid, and you run in to a bad run you r dean and dead,
wat?
