Great preflop play against the pubs drones.
They won"t know what"s hit them, if you connect. Hey you connected ;D. Now do not make the f#=king Huuuuuuuuuge
mistake of explaining yourself to them. Nod, act daft and then go on to play ABC and at least double your stack.
Probably a good idea to have a larger start stack though and do jam the flop, with these percentages get the the money in the pot now, or get them to fold either way....3-6 was the king. WPNHGG...ooops timewarp.... ::)

 To play suited connectors or suited gappers properly you need to be comfortably deep. Even 100 BBs is not deep enough. When watching "High stakes" or PAD cash games, i always take notice of the agressive players who play many hands. And it is no surprise to see them buy in for as much as 400 BBs very often. The reason for this is that it gives them more freedom to play a wider range. Hands like 6-3s etc actually get delt quite often.

But anyway, the reason we play hands like this is to hit a juicy flop, evan against AA you are a favourite on this flop, and if the turn is a blank your odds get halved with 1 card to come. So it is best to get as much money in the pot on the flop. That is the beauty of No limit, and the reason why suited connectors are cash game type hands.

Phil Gordon has a similar hand to this in a cash game situation in his little blue book, up against phill laak. He got it all in on the flop as a favourite playing over 100 BBs deep i think.
