Pocket Aces: The ICM Strategy For When Overpairs Spell Doom

[Mike_25]

Your two hole cards add up to an ace and another ace. These pocket aces seem great but overpairs are often beaten. Hands like kings or queens may beat you. You need a plan. The ICM strategy works well. ICM stands for ' Independent Chip Model'. It means play smart, not loose. Bet small at first. Don't go all in too fast. Build your chips slowly. Hope your aces hold up. But know overpairs often lose. Play clever, not only lucky.
