What's the best pair your worst?

Redman1902 · Mar 9, 2022

One of my favorite hands is 86, although the constellations where I win big with it are rather rare.

I find Ax suited combinations the most emotionally ungrateful (besides losing AA), as I sometimes have somewhat inflated flush hopes.

KJs - this is a good hand to make a 3 bet to an aggressive opponent sitting at the table on your right side.

Yeah, if it's not suited, it's a snap fold. What can you get? Top pair bad kicker or a straight K high and the opponent has AK or AQ and beats you in any way, lol. It's a good hand to defend the BB against a late position raise, though!

One of the best comments I read in a long time...:deal::deal::deal::deal:
.However, no matter suited or not, I really don't have luck with that cards...

QJ for me, its strong but weak and i'm not that great playing it

I noticed QJ depends on which platform you play.. On PS it's 50% chance you'll get, but on ACR and GG poker...rarely.....

That's a nice idea to run... I will try it next time...Although I really don't have luck with it...

A-6 is my least favorite, not bad to push all-in but the worst to play it at flop.

I guess I would rarely go all in with it.... but maybe when I am on the low stack... but with full-stack, I would wait for the flop...

push all-in means do it exactly when you're stack is short. it doesn't makes sense to shove preflop (being the first one to raise) with big stack , even with aces.

QQ

Mt\TT, later stage, card dead forever. Get pocket QQ. Decide to shove. On cue, opponent show3sw AA, I lose, better to shove than get blinded out on the bubble. Pocket QQ and the all-in, you are looking for trouble.
But late stage MTT, QQ is viable. Taking a chance, but QQ has worked more than often than not.

Actually the pair that get me the most income is AA and the one I lost most is 99.
Mid pairs are really tricky, if yo don't play them correctly yo may end up losing a lot of money.

When I have smaller stack I COULD go all in, but I don't do it.. I fold... hate those cards when I am health..

KK has been a disaster for me lately

ACESOVEREZZZ · Mar 18, 2022

worst pair

10 - 10 is a pair I for sure can't fold pre flop but won't bet the ranch on these either. Seems I will most of the time lose to someone hold a higher card such as Q-3 and sure enough a Q will flop and my pocket 10's are no good

Good question, I would have to say mine is AQ off. I have been crushed deep in tourneys with this hand.

Jwl8092 · Mar 18, 2022

I would say AQo is my #1 hated nice hand, other one is KTo( dont play it much anymore - never was in the lead)

My worst nightmare is AJ

Niykk · Mar 18, 2022

My worst nightmare is AJ. I had to successfully bluff my way out a lot of times and also lost countless hands with it.

CrushAce8 · Mar 18, 2022

Lately I could probably name every combination of cards since I have had the tendency to lose any way!

pegasus888 · Mar 18, 2022

I like all hands in general, they all depend on position, stack size, full or short table, type of players playing on the table, etc.

But there is a hand I play very carefully, is J7, this hand can get you in a very bad spot especially when you hit a straight and get reraise. I lost some big pots before, and I've seen some friends losing to a JQ.

Zvezda kz · Mar 20, 2022

The cards are beautiful, but they lose very often. In general, I read that such cards are played mainly from the position of a small blind against a large one.

NightStalker · Mar 22, 2022

Nowadays, my worst pocket pairs is KK.

And my worst broadway hand is AJ.

offshore11000 · Mar 23, 2022

When you say pair you mean hand but I think it was possible to understand what you meant. Well I'll answer as if I understood the context literally. My worst pair will depend on the situation more generally I play 55 or higher, but there are situations that I'll play any two cards, so it's very relative.

hilary antonik filho · Mar 23, 2022

unbelievably, my worst pair is AA going to fold, in one week I lost in 6 different tournaments.

ADRI7HO · Mar 23, 2022

For me, Q, J is the worst broadway hand if the pot is raised and if the flop is Q or J high there is a good chance there may be a stronger K, Q - A, Q or A, J - K, J is out.
Of the pairs, the 8.8 pair is what looks good enough to make me think strong, but half of the pairs are already better than him.

bethqueen · Mar 23, 2022

For me it's the 77, because I have bad memories with it, but I know it's a medium pair.
I just think it's absurd the people here condemning JJ's AA pair, being that mathematically they are one of the best cards in the game. If you hate AA what will you love hahaha

StressMit · Mar 23, 2022

I do agree that KJ unsuited is very hard to win with.
it's tough to get the Q to fill the inside straight.
Online programs seem to not favor this holding.

What's the best pair your worst?
