I make it a practice to identify the nuts, 2nd nuts, ..., 5th nuts on every board. Board reading is fundamental skill. The auto hand ranking in online poker makes us all a bit lazy, I'd guess. Anything that keeps me focused on the game and thinking about lines is good for me. Also, this helps hugely when transitioning from HE to PLO.
Yeah this is something I should definitely work on. I didn't even think about a higher str8 not during or after the hand.... lol whats funny is I thought I had played this hand well..lol OH WELL back to drawing boards
