Coordinated

 
Poker Guide: Coordinated

A situation in which the community cards on the board allow for many different hand combinations.

SoundPoker Says: In hands which offer many card combinations it is wise to only bet heavily if you hold the nuts or second best hand. Pay close attention to your opponent's tells, or players who are representing a strong hand. If you do hold the nuts, coordinated hands offer a great opportunity for you to trap and bleed your opponents through strategies like slow playing and check-raising.

For example, a board with an Ace of hearts, an Ace of diamonds, a King of hearts, a Jack of hearts and a Jack of diamonds ( Ah - Ad - Kh - Jh - Jd - 10h ) is very coordinated. Players can use those cards to create a three of a kind, a straight, a flush, a straight flush or a full house.
