Probably smth like AJ, AQ where you 3bet and fold a lot and also lose a lot off shoves in short stacks with those kind of hands.

Every poker player seems to have a few "cursed" hands. Mine would be Ace-Jack offsuit (AJo) and King-Queen offsuit (KQo). They look strong, but they often lead to difficult decisions and can be dominated by better hands. They're profitable when played in the right spots, but they're definitely not automatic all-ins.

KT This kills me 90% of the time I have chosen to always fold it

It definitely seems like AK lately : I busted out of three tournaments Saturday with it.... and lost my stack in a cash game after flopping top two against a lil set....

Pocket Kings are the worst.

For me, it's probably KK 😂 Every time I get comfortable with it, something strange seems to happen on the board. I still know it's a great hand, but my confidence definitely disappears a little!

For me, pocket jacks have to be cursed. Every time I get them, I feel like something goes wrong. Either someone wakes up with a better hand, or I get too confident and end up losing a big pot. I know it’s probably just variance, but after enough bad beats, you definitely start looking at those Jacks differently.Also I go with Aks or AKo specially It runs bad in multi pot
