Aside from Aces or Kings, what is your favorite pocket pair to look down at, and why? 🤔

Pocket eights often make it into a set and I'm lucky with them

My favorite hand is 55. It's amazing how much I click on the flop when I'm with them hahah

Based on my observations, this depends on the specific day, but the lower pairs are hands like these. There are days when I always win with, for e.g. 77, but the next day, the same is true for a different hand for e.g. 44.

KK seems to bring me most luck, 99 probably the worst luck (ill always find AA with those).

These are the most interesting. But I do prefer to see most of the times 1010, since its easy to abandon if things look awry and its nice against A10.

In reality, I haven't noticed what my favorite hand will be, I just know that I won and so I lost too, with aces and kings, the other cards too, even two it's good to try your luck.

I’d go with pocket eights. They’re a fun hand to play, especially when you hit a set on the flop. It’s always nice when a medium pocket pair turns into a big hand. 😄

it’s hard not to get excited when you look down and see AA. Of course, the real challenge is playing them after the flop when things don’t go as planned. A favorite hand can be fun, but good decisions matter more than luck.

When it comes to pocket pairs, my favorites will always be the big ones. There is something special about looking down at AA, KK, or QQ before the action even starts. Of course, I know that big pairs don’t guarantee a win, and sometimes the poker gods have other plans 😂. But there’s nothing like the feeling of picking up a premium pocket pair and knowing you have a great opportunity to build a big pot.

QQ
Why, because besides AA or KK, QQ is also quite promising.

Often, when playing with a Pair, poker players create profitable pots while minimizing the risk of losing. For me, it's 9 9.

Mine is probably 77. No real logical reason for it, I’ve just always liked seeing pocket 7s. They feel strong enough to get excited about but not strong enough to get you into too much trouble when the board gets ugly.

I really like 99 but I don't win to much playing it.

TT is my favorite hand. Of course it all depends on the situation, but in most cases TT is a reason for me to even go all-in.

I like to play small pocket pairs when the situation allows for it. If you hit a set, you can win a big pot, especially when there are 3 or 4 players in the hand.
