hand selections

I have a friend who continually asks me the same questions about his hand selection over and over again... and invariably the question is always "I just don't know how to play connectors or one gappers". He states this as if they have to be played everytime he gets them...

There are times that these types of hands should be played and in certain circumstances raised pre and so forth... but the frustration lies in his inability to understand that they DON'T have to be played, and shouldn't be played every single time you see them.... "but what if they're suited?" is always the next response...

I sometimes can't understand how much some people don't understand that almost every hand is foldable and have to have a sollid answer for how to play every single type of hand... preflop, flop, and post flop...

Sometimes the answer is to fold them...
