Texas Hold Em Players
Edited on Thu Feb-05-04 08:02 PM by Mass_Liberal
whats your favorite hand?

Mine is A 10 suited. Or J 10. Yummy hand. For some reason I always win with pocket 6's. Makes no sense at all, numerically.

1. I've been playing hold'em
over 15 years. I gave up on superstitious hands long ago. My favorite hand is AA, followed by KK.

11. nah not at all
but I supplemented my income (or lack thereof) for a couple years as a player. You learn pretty quick that the only way to win consistently over time is to play good cards.

I will admit to inordinate fondness for any pocket pair in late position, though.

10. I like a suited Ace.
Edited on Thu Feb-05-04 08:20 PM by Limbought
Suited Ace/King is the best, of course.

13. I tend to think more in terms of what hands NOT to play
Because I *always* want to play. I've had to learn to throw down more and bide my time. I do much better that way.

14. yup...
that's the way. In fact, I've learned to hate some hands that people love. I think I've lost more money on AJ than any other hand, especially at no-limit. It's a crap hand. Took me a long tiime to learn not to play it except under certain circumstances.
