for me there is no worse or better pair, but opportunities to play with any pair!

for me it is AQ and AJ . when you hit your Ace but the guy has AK or AQ respectively then you get in a lot of trouble

but yes K-J is tricky too so i understand you . however in my opinion unless you are a beginner K-J is not that hard to let go . especially compared to AQ - AJ

and you will be surprised but you know which hand makes me happy to get but at the same time i think "oh boy here we go ...." because i am expecting bad things :D ? QQ !!! in my opinion QQ is harder to play than JJ . because it is harder to let go . i even made a thread about this lol

but in the end even though starting hands are important . what we do with them is also important

good luck

How do you play them that you have so little success? Do you slow play them, or go all in pre-flop? Something does not add up. You may want to record each time you get them and see what your percentage is after 100 hands with AA. It could be that you have many small wins with AA, especially if you go all in, but your losses may be very big when your AA get cracked.

Hello Guys,

My worst pair of good cards is KJ. I really hate to have this pair in my hands, and I always fold. I have tried several times to play with it, but I lose almost every time!

I hope I will read some answers!
Cheers!
Hey LilicumBosniacum, who ever told you KJ was a good hand? Just kidding. As usual, it always depends on the situation. Heads up without a major raise before the flop it's often the best hand and I've been known to go all in with it. With nine players on the table after a raise and reraise, yeah, those cards suck.

JJ, it's almost impossible to fold this preflop but almost every time someone gets a better pair

In my case, the one that bothers me the most is JJ, I've lost countless times and I cry when I see them come to me haha

Any card is good if you make a good hand on the river. Even 2 7. But most of all, I don't like AA's because it's impossible to reset them.

I think a difficult pocket pair is 99, not strong but not weak at the same time, sometimes it can be overestimated or underestimated and played badly. It's not always possible to tell by the structure of the board where you were with it right now.

My best pair is 99, it has saved me many times in tournaments, it brings me a lot of luck.

And my worst pair is JJ, whenever it comes into my hand it hits the board A and Q, and it seems like someone always has an A and Q in their hand.
