Totally get that—QQ can feel cursed sometimes. Mine’s AK offsuit. Looks pretty, but so many times you miss the flop and end up in tough spots vs aggression. It's powerful, but tricky without position or reads.

Perhaps the most unloved hand is JJ, very often I don't know what to do with it at all.

ITs gotta be Jiggidies or pocket Kings cause you want them to win more than %68 of the time

From a mathematical point of view, two aces is the best hand.

KK is cursed... at least in my case- it's tough to remember the last big pot won with this 'top hand', while so many big pots lost and/or MTTs busted against hands I dominate, at least preflop... I still continue to play the hand the right way- aggressive, but I'm not as happy when I'm dealt Kings as when I've started playing the game quite a few years back lol

I like QTs because it has so much potential—flush draws, straight draws, two pairs. It plays really well postflop.

My least favorite hand is 7 and 2, which is considered the worst hand you can have pre-flop.

Without a doubt, JJ, I lose more often than I win with this hand. I only feel comfortable with them when I hit another J on the board.

For me, the two hands I always struggle with are J-J and A-Q.
No matter how I play them, it feels like trouble is always around the corner. 😅
With J-J, there's almost always a higher card on the flop, and you end up guessing.
And A-Q… well, half the time it feels like a trap hand — strong, but not strong enough
