| Don't really have a favorite hand unless you count pocket aces, but least favorite has got to be AK, every time I have this I lose. Try raising big pre flop, raise again with top pair, lose to straight, limp lose to 2 pair. Am getting to the stage where next time I get it I'm going to muck it as fast as possible. | ||

| Mine is Big Slick. It's a good hand to make a play with, but easier to release than AA or KK if you miss. When I win with AK, I generally win more than I do with AA or KK, and when I lose with it, I generally lose less. I'm also partial to middle suited-connectors. When thye hit, you can really break someone with them. -Moz "One November spawned a monster in the shape of this child..." | ||

| i really like pocket TT's for some reason. I like that they are easier to get away from than the big pairs, but I ram and jam them just the same until I figure out I'm beat. I also like that when I make a str8 with them, usually nobody else has it because you need a T or 5, and I've got two of the necessary TT's for any big str8. | ||

| by the way, i don't ram n jam them from up front. Usually when a few people have already folded. | ||

| I'm fond of raising from early postion with the TT against people that will fold, or somewhat respect my play, and betting the flop to see where it goes and just calling in late position with several limpers. | ||

| I agree that at the right table, TTs can be raised from ANY position and played aggressively. Depends on the competition. I think its a somewhat underrated hand in the poker literature, whereas something like JT is overrated. I just love those TTs, maybe a little too much. | ||

| I don't have one favoritve hand, but rather two favorite hands. My first one is the pocket ace 8 suited hearts. Wild Bill got shot in the head holding those cards. Whether thats good or bad luck is up to you. The second hand I'm getting fond of is Queen 10 of diamonds. I am very lucky with that pair, winning the pot(either by queens hitting or just bluffing if rags come up). | ||
