trouble hand no 2: A-10

while its a n excellent hand in black jack, the A-10 doesn t fair nearly so well in texas hold em. heres the problem: if you happen to catch another ace on the flop,A-K,A-Q and A-J will have you beat.add to that, if the flopcomes A-7-4, for example,you ll lose to A-7,A,4,A-A,7-7,and 4-4. the only time you can really feel safe with A-10 is when you flop two pair or make a straight.
