In a world ruled by Hold’em, draw poker is becoming a lost art. Draw is
not extinct though, just ignored by the cameras of ESPN and Bravo. Due
to the explosion of Hold’em, somebody who knows what they are doing can
clean up against players who have either forgotten the strategy behind
draw poker, or never took the time to learn the basics of the game. In
today’s article we will look at how to play the game when holding two pair .
Playing with two pair can be a tricky proposition. These cards can go
either way, which can be a curse. It is not obvious whether or not they
are winners or losers. Caution is the word when holding two pair. If the
pot has been opened and raised, call when you have tens up or worse. Of
course if you have jacks up or better, you will want to re-raise. If the
pot is raise-opened chances are the player is working with only one
pair. The odds are about 3-1 that your two pair is a better hand. If
it’s three bets to you, fold anything tens up or lower, and cap with
jacks up or better. Playing this way increases your variance
considerably, but it also increases your win rate. If there has been a
number of raises and re-raises the best call is to dump anything worse
then jacks up.
You’ll see many players who just call two bets with aces up and then
check to the other one-card draw. They cost themselves several bets
every time they do it, plus increase their chances of losing the pot by
enticing other players in who now get correct odds to play. Don’t make
that mistake. Sure, you’ll cost yourself four bets or more instead of
two in the pots you lose, but that’s more than made up for in those that
you win.
