Skinny Minnie: Sample Hand 2

Video Transcript

"So let's continue with our sample hand of Skinnie Minnie. We picked up just before we left off just before the draw in the last segment. At this point I'll have to look at your hand, I'm sorry. You have an ace high. The reason I call it an ace high is because there are no matches, there are no pairs, there are no you know straight or flush going on and you have enough cards that are higher than an eight that you can't, you should not play toward the low. So I'm going to suggest that you hold on to the ace, the king and the jack and you throw away these two cards. You say Reg I'll take two cards. I give you two. I look at my hand. I decide I'm taking two cards. And now comes the part where we build our hands and create our sales pitches. What are we going to bluff toward. What is the deal here. You have at this time again an ace high, nothing else going on. I'm going to submit that the best thing for you to do is structure your hand this way. That's going to give you the best chance at pushing me off the pot. You'll be deceptively selling a straight. A high straight at that. And looking at my hand you just might be able to push me off the pot."
