Full explanation

Two-gapper refers to hole cards separated by two ranks (e.g. 9‑6).

Explanation. These are connectors with two gaps between ranks—offering straight potential but less than one‑gappers or connectors. They’re speculative and more situational. Recognizing two‑gappers helps refine your speculative preflop selection and cold-call planning.
