Hutchison Point System - Starting Hand Values

I have Calculated Some Hand Values for you. While this won't be my preferred Tournament strategy, I believe it will work very well for the beginner in Cash Ring Games.

For The Strategy, go to: Hutchison Point System

Basically, your win rate is better when you call with 30+ values only (up to 7% better).

What the numbers mean:

If your total is:
  • 30+ Premium cards, that can be played from any position, if there are no raises.
  • 27+ These cards can be played from Middle or Late position, provided there are no raises.
  • 25+ Should only be played from late position, if there have been no raises.
To raise or call a raise, you should have a point total of:
  • 34+ In early position
  • 31+ In middle position
  • 29+ In late position

  • AA - 42
