When playing very deep stacked poker and considering a 4-bet preflop, it is advisable to use a suited ace or king. With these cards you will block some of the strongest parts of your opponent's range, such as pocket aces, pocket kings and ace king. Additionally, when called, these hands often flop top pairs or very strong flush draws, making them easier to navigate postflop.
