1) I probably forget that JTs is better so I probably play the Ace a lot. Also Ace is better when you play 9/5, 8/5, etc. So I'm better off remembering that.
2) QJ
3) KTs probably because I don't notice the other club half of the time

I really don't blame anyone who is not Bob Dancer holding just KTs in number 3.

To he honest... I play the Second best return on all this hands...I'm OK with all the other hands on the training program...I was just curious to what other players were doing with them when playing for money at the casino...

Since the DDB I usually play have the Royal, AWAK and Aces, as progressives, the 1- Ace, 2 - Ace & 3 - Suited King, Ten are what I hold

Not for the paytables he should try to play. KT5 suited is correct for 9/7 and 9/6 TDB. 9.6% error at 9/7, and 2.3% error at 9/6 when holding just KTs.

1=A
2=JQ
3=KT
   That's how I would play them even if they're percentage points less than perfect. Holding the 5 is a penalty card I can handle swallowing unless the flush payout is 7 for 1. I'm no Bob Dancer either but I did practice on his software.
