Suited connectors can be very powerfull hands. You just have to know how to play them.
Don't invest to much if you only hit one pair. To have position on the opponent is crucial with these holdings. And be aware of the guys who like to play Ace-rag suited. Flush over flush is not so funny.

Expert play.
With aces you can win a lot of pots without improving your hand.
Sure, 98s is one of the best hands you can have against aces. But you are still a 80 to 20 dog.
98s is a good hand if you can see flops cheaply, espacially if a lot of players enter the pot. If you hit you usually hit BIG and can win a multiwaypot.

60% - 40 %? What cracked out math are you using there buddy? Last time I checked your math was a little off my friend. AA vs suited connectors was a 80:20 affair. Maybe this flawed math is the reason your first post on here was complaining about poker in general and that we were all wasting our time?
Plus how do you figure you have more chance of tripping up suited connectors over a pocket pair? Needing to hit 2:3 cards left vs. needing to hit 1:2 left.
I think you need to worry more about learning the math behind the game than challenging people to heads up games at different sites. O but wait heads up is more about luck so that must be it.
