On A5s
Category: Texas Holdem FAQ
Hello,
I believe you once said that A5s is a pretty good hand for hitting straights and flushes. One thing I’m bothered of is that I’m actually under the idea that you couldn’t use wrap-around straights, A2345, in holdem. Another thing, in case you can use them, is JQKA2 a valid wrap-around straight? Your thoughts?
Warm regards,
Jones
Jones,
A-5 suited can be used to make flushes, but the straight potential is weak. I would see a flop in the blinds or late position, or in limit holdem I might play this.
Wrap around straights are not legal in any form of poker. An ace may be used to make a wheel or broadway, and that is all.
