Favourite Hand

[YOTC]

Of course we all love the pocket rockets, but we all have little hands that we have made our own.

Personally i like J,10 suited, i don't know why, its not the strongest hand, but i love it.

Also have a strong connection with 10,2 (Doyle Brunson). I was playing in a freeroll and had 300 left early on, thought i had to call this guys all in. Its the wrong move i know, but sometimes you gotta create your own luck. He had A,A, oops!

The flop came up with nothing for both of us. The turn came, its a 2, i now need a 2 or a 10 to win. The river comes, its a 2! I ended up winning some money from that freeroll, the great escape.

Of course i dont call all in with 10,2 anymore, but i like to limp in with it, if i can.

Probably A-Qs. No idea why, just win with it a lot, I guess.

 

[jay_1972]

A 10.
Won some big pots with it when i first started and did not believe in folding a Ace.
Allthough i have since named the hand Anna Kournikova.
"Looks nice but never wins".
Still be certain i will lose atleast a few bucks on it per night

"Looks nice but never wins".

I now love 10, 9 off suit.

Playing at absolute poker, managed to limp in with 10,9. Flop came up 10,10,K. Awesome, alright somebody was agressive before me, ill just call, slowplay him. Turn is a 10, oh this is gold. Another very agressive move, i just call it again. river comes up as a J, he checks, so i bet all in (i had 500 left at this point in time), he calls. Pick up 9,000 starting with 1,500. (a few other players in the pot)

A,4

A,A,J on the flop, checked it. Guy went all in. Called. Had a jack, something on the turn i forget, then an Ace on the river. Loving it!

Funny you should mention such community cards, but my fave, at least, a hand that sticks in my mind, is K 10. Has served me well a couple times.

 

[Ricketts]

Anything but KK.

 

[Crosby87]

Anything but KK.

I tend to win with KK more than AA for some reason. Cowboys never fail me.

 

[Borgsta]

Yeah i win with KK a lot more than with AA too.

My fav cards are 89 suited. Not sure why but I seem to win a lot with em.

I enjoy pocket 10's for some reason. I think it is the feeling that they are so susceptible to the paint and Aces that people will be playing, but when a flop lands how you want it to, it can be pretty exciting.

 

[DoubleA]

J-10 Suited I throw away everytime, I've always had bad luck with it.
I know you should only play the cards on their merit, but I'd have to be in the small blind or for there to be small limits for me to call.

 

[sante]

Having AA sucks. I always lose with that hand. I much rather QQ or KK.


My fave hand is Q7 of suit, some of you will know why if you read the other threads

 

[dougthelegend]

I hate having KK - whenever i get the cowboys, it seems like somebody else has the pocket rockets

Personally, a hand that has served me well, are queens. Always seem to land a queen on the flop when i get the ladies

 

[guess_who]

I like to limp in with Q 3 of suit for some reason, it always serves me well on the flop!!!

 

[London-Tavern-Is-Filth]

77 they just seem lucky, have caught many many winning sets with these, also 69suited, nothing looks sexier lol and they have served me well

 

[weagles_fan]

Queen 6 Flop full house

 

[Hotel 6]

I am a big fan of playing with a suited 6 and 9. For some reason I seem to win a lot of hands with dinner for two...

 

[choc_a_holic]

Now you mention it I guess I prefer to have two cards that are both hearts rather than any other suit..it just feels better

 

[PAFC2004]

Lovely ladies. (QQ)
