Ace rag top pair, or a 33% draw?
None of them are even close to the nuts, but if I had to pick I would pick the 33% draw because Ace rag hitting top pair is usually never good anyways.
This question is a mindf*ck haha I'd take top pair over a flush or straight draw.....but id take a straight flush draw over top pair.
what is Ace rag to you? A-2-3-4-5? Ace rage to me is anything under A-Q. Like rocko said I would pick a 33 % hand
who knows... on carbon it doesnt matter, its a coin flip every hand lol!!
depends on who im playing against how they are playing and if they are betting aggressive
the nutz is the winning hand...so I don't see how you can apply that term here.
ye agree with paisleysky, you can have the nuts on flop with a ace high flush, but it still can be beaten by full house..
so you can have the real nuts only on the river..
I have no opinion on the OP, just came to say I cleaned up all of the childish crap going on in this thread, consider this a warning.
in stars anything goes , after my AA lost preflop 97 off-- $11buyin , i lost faith ,
My opinion is that: It matters very much players around you. What style of play adopted.
Well, i just got beat in another PO FR, because an 18% draw was the nuts!
some poker players should be slapped
Those same players should be endlessly bankrolled.Quote:

I think he just worded the question wrong.... I think what they meant was which hand would you rather have if it was ace rag with top pair vs 33% draw, or something along those lines
i was being sarcastic, obviously neither hand is the nutz...
its just that PO freerollers tend to love these shitty hands
In my mind it would be the 33% draw. Ace rag is just one of those trouble hands (one that if you take the risk can pay off well, but is a crap shoot at best).
I'm right but I'm still a putz, I know.Quote:

The more nutz is the hand that wins in the end. I could be a 8 to 1 dog but if i win in the end I have the nutz.
actually no, you'd have the winning hand lol... the nuts refers to the best hand that could possibly be made making it unbeatable no matter what your opponent holdsQuote:

Id probably take the draw. If u hit it then youll likely win a bit pot. With ace rag you cant build a large pot confidently.
on carbon it doesnt matter the underdog always wins you see it everyday
the nuts in when there is no possible chance of loosing that hand, even if the other guy has like less than >1 % to win that hand its not the nuts.
Well, definitely the draw which almost always gets you nothing when you are really desperate.
I wouldn't want to be in either situation, unfortunately.
That just doesnt make any sense.. Youd take top pair over a str8 and flush draw but ud take a str8 flush draw? for one more out and ull do it? You know on the flop that the flush draw is favored over a pair right? Let alone the str8 draw with it..Quote:

I agree some people's ace/rag are a whole bunch different than the way I think.Quote:
