I play a lot of Texas Hold Em Bonus. You are supposed to only see your own 2 cards and decide whether to fold or play. The standard math says to fold unsuited 2-3 through 2-7 and play everything else.

However, in most situations you can easily view the cards of your nearest neighbor. Some casinos don't care, some do, but they are there to see. My question is: How does the fold/play strategy change if you match one of your neighbor's cards, for each possible hand? If 8-2 is a borderline hand to start with and my neighbor has j-8 I know I'm folding, but what if I have q-6 and he has k-q?

This comes up all the time for me, so any and all help is appreciated.

I'm sure it does.

You had the EXACT same scenario, right down to the cards, and even the wording of your question, two days ago:

Realized that wizard answers questions here and forum answers questions there.
