a tie between 77 and 88..

For reasons unknown, I have good fortune with 77 and 88. They may be dominated heads up, but 77 connects low, and high. 88 I don't catch the low str8, as the probabilities say, but it works better for me than 99 or 1010.

I don't like small pocket pairs, I can't fold them preflop but end up missing the flop most of the times

88-the snowmen, as they are called, are very sympathetic to me.I don't know why, but I win a lot of hands with them.so far, they have not upset me and I choose them!
I like 88, too, but I like 77 more, probably just because 7 is my favorite number! I always try to play them, but always wisely, I try not to overestimate this hand!

Hello If you take pairs from 2 to 7, then I hate them, because I can't fold them and I lose 90% of the hands
I don't really like little pocket pairs either, but I like some, like 88-77! In many cases, I lose, but not very much! As they say "to the flop, everyone is equal" and with a good stack I cannot throw them out!

I think I had the most luck with 77, but I usually don't go all in with small pocket pairs. There is too much that can go wrong.

Pocket 6's would be it for me. My first time I had 4 of a kind was 6's. Actually the 1st 3 time were. LOL Sixes just seam to win for me overall. Probably my getting so many great hands is why I love them so much and I am sure I dont win as much as I would like to think with them but even today when I look down and see them I think I am going to have a winner.

2s just because once upon a time I hit quads on the flop with them and the whole table thought I was bluffing. Definitely a meme hand though. Only reason I played it then was because the pre-flop raises were small.

Either 66 or 77 for the obvious special number when the set hits

The very first hand playing live at a casino that I won was with pocket 7s...I usually play them, but they have not been kind to me of late. I have had more luck with the hand that got me knocked me out of the 2019 wsop Colossus...pocket 8s (came up against pocket Jacks).

I would say that my small pair would be "77" I really like this pair .... of course it will depend on my position at the table, but whenever I can I play them ...!

I don't have a favorite, I play a lot depending on my position and the opponent's reading!

I don't really like playing small pocket pairs if I don't hit the set on the flop. So I don't have any favorites among the small pocket pairs.

I do not like small pocket pairs, unless you hit trips you will lose most
of the time.

Hello, I'd like to ask you what your favorite small pocket pair is and why? Maybe you and her won an important handout or tournament, maybe you just consider it more lucky?


Whatever the biggest pocket pair that you still count as a small one (so probably 55)

Because it can overset the smallest pairs like 22, 33, 44

Not much better than getting all your money in the middle in a set over set situation where you have the best of it... the one thing that is better? getting all in with the nut flush against a non nut flush where your opponent is literally drawing dead :rolleyes:
