What "trash" hand do you seem to win a lot of pots with?

For me, it's probably 7♠6♠ (or any suited connector like 8♣7♣). 😄

On paper it looks like a trash hand compared to premiums, but it can make hidden straights, flushes, and strong combo draws.

These hands also tend to get paid because opponents don't put you on them.
Of course, position and stack size matter — I'm not playing them from every seat.

What's funny is that sometimes these "trash" hands seem to win more memorable pots than AA!

Mine is probably 7♠4♠. It's not a hand I'm actively looking to play, but it has won me some surprisingly big pots. I think part of the reason is that opponents rarely put you on a hand like that when you make a disguised straight or two pair. Of course, the reality is that it's still a weak starting hand and the math doesn't magically change. But every regular seems to have one "garbage" hand that has a much better personal history than it deserves, and for me it's 7♠4♠.
