Non-premium hands you really like to play?

IamVALHALLA · Jan 30, 2018

Are there any hands you get that you just feel this "urge" to play almost every time?

I absolutely love being dealt 7-9 suited and unless there are massive bets and raises before me I will play it like a premium hand. I'd even say I have won far more often with that hand than AA.
I'd be far more willing to play 7-9 suited than almost any other suited connector (which I would rarely play anyway).

Are there any pretty weak hands you enjoy playing?

mikeisthebestever · Jan 31, 2018

Maybe you are losing with aces because you play 79 like a premium

If you played 7 9 like aces and showed it down once Id never respect your raise again lol! I sat here for 5 minutes and tried to think of my favorite hand, realized I just don't like to fold lmao.

I like to play small pairs: 33,44,55,66. When I go with such a pair and catch a set on the flop, it makes me very happy. My hand is well worth it, 80%, I'm starting to fan the bank, it's hard for opponents to calculate what I have if on board Q, J, K, A.:aetsch:

a favorite hand is not bad, if only you play it as a premium hand. It does not even make you vulnerable, because the rest of the same strength of arms you play differently.

In fact, suited connectors or even connectors with one missing card (5-7s, 8-10s, 6-8, 9-Js, etc.) are a pretty strong hand, if you can cheaply see the flop. The main thing is not to overpay for it.

My premium hand is suited connectors, I like to play suited J2, K5.

With this hands , if the call its low, you can pay just for see flop.If the flop its good, stay in game, but if not you need to fold or just check.

Sorin Iliescu · Jan 31, 2018

low pocket pairs and suited connectors; i like hitting sets or quads.

proud2Bwhack · Feb 10, 2018

Q-10 it just feels lucky, lol. love catching hidden straights with it. it ranges from A-10 straight, to Q-8 straight.

freddy66 · Feb 10, 2018

9-7 suited

my fav is 9-7 hearts

ubo · Feb 11, 2018

79 used to punish them AA

KevinLee · Feb 12, 2018

It is remarkable the number of people that love 79 suited.

How is that working out for you?

Andrei Korolev · Feb 12, 2018

Medium and small suited connectors with a fun cast...

IamVALHALLA · Feb 12, 2018

7-9 suited is certainly a popular hand

freestocks · Feb 12, 2018

8, 5 offsuit

BigSlick20 · Feb 14, 2018

Like Q-10 and have a crazy attraction to K-9 for some reason.

playinggameswithu · Feb 14, 2018

I love 53s because it dominates the low.Also JT because it dominates the middle and the high range. Pocket pairs like 22,33,44,55 are my favorite especially the insidious 22.

orchidra · Feb 14, 2018

I do not have a specific non-premium hand that I like to play.

But it always brings a smile to my face, when I get a "free" look from the BB with absolute rubbish cards and then flop a full house. The more limpers the better.

CuddlyBobcat30 · Feb 15, 2018

I actually even have hands of each suit that I like to play if the opportunity and right price arises:
A5hearts
910hearts
Q9spades
79diamonds
J9 clubs
For some reason though Q9 is just one of my top favorite weird hands, not too sure why though[emoji23][emoji23]

Gohaku94 · Feb 15, 2018

63 suited because a few years ago i heard Doyle Brunson saying that is his favorite hand and started thinking about it. IT is a really strange hand to play.. nobody can put you on 63 lol so you can hit some nasty flops or draws ( many times i had flops with 33 or 66 in them or 245) and it is so hard to be dominated if you just open it.. so even If Doyle was kidding when he said that he made me think and make 63 my favorite hand

If you ever play against me think about it If You are a 33x board [emoji14]
Good luck

I play alot of hands that most would fold only to find out im going to fold it anyway if somebody at the table raises which is what happens 90 percent of the time

freddy66 · Feb 15, 2018

Peppinotom · Feb 15, 2018

any two can do:wavey:

NoPlace4U · Feb 17, 2018

J10s for sure, you get a piece of the board more often than not.

Scottk87 · Feb 17, 2018

Mine is J7. won my first 2 poker tourneys with it, and just stuck around, I will raise with it most of the time, especially when playing with friends who know that, cause when the board comes J77, I can represent that I have it when I don’t lol, I will fold it when facing heavy pressure though.
