What's that lucky hand you always insist on playing but shouldn't?

It doesn't matter what position you're in at the table.

You have a love affair with it, a platonic crush that always gets you into trouble.

Is it: J9 suited? J9 off, QT off from UTG?, K7?

Tell us which is your favorite hand.

It is 109s. From any position i love to play that hand, and like you said "a platonic crush that always gets you into trouble" that's what happens usually.

J9s feels so irresistible

makes pretty straights,

makes pretty flushes,

hits a lot of flops,

“feels” playable from any seat.

It’s the classic poker crush — fun, attractive, seductive.

I don't have such a hand. What I always play, in all circumstances: AA,KK,QQ.

Pocket 4s! 😄
I don’t wish to jinx this but 90% of the times I hit another 4 on the board! 🤭

The first time playing live Texas Hold'em at a casino was in a single table tournament...I was nervous that I would be the first knocked out, so I played conservatively until two players were eliminated in one hand...I went from 10th out of ten to eighth out of eight. The very next hand I got pocket 7s and shoved all in against two players...my 7s held and I was in second place after that hand...pocket 7s are my "MUST PLAY" hand...BTW...I ended up winning the tournament for $700...some 20 years later, that is still my biggest poker score.

I love card 9.Especially pocket two nines.What does card 9 mean in fortune telling? Justice is the ability to correctly and objectively assess a person or situation in order to make the right decision.

Mine’s J9 suited—looks pretty, plays ugly, and somehow I still convince myself “this time it’ll hit.”

I probably miss something here but I do not have any "lucky" or "favorite" cards. In poker i just believe in math, hands reading, strategy and such trivial things. Ofc I prefer good cards to weak ones, like AA are the strongest etc. But it is also trivial :)

I'm not emotionally attached to certain cards — they're all the same until the flop hits my hand.
But still, pocket pairs in 3-bet pots can make a lot of money when they hit, especially against maniacs.

And recently, either yesterday or the day before, I finally realized the true power of AQ.
In a JackpotPoker tournament, I bet players 7 times, and 4 of them were with AQ.

When it comes to “love”, these are definitely the right connectors for me — they can hit both flash and street, and sometimes even both at once.
And, of course, pocket pairs that can be turned into a kit. I love sets 🤤

But loving postcards is like loving a prostitute — you can't really love them.
At the most important moment, they can betray you.

It's better to love the connection between cards and the board — synchronicity, the moment when everything lines up.

Pair of 22, when a pair of cards arrive on the table, another player wins because he has high cards the pair of 22 is no longer valid.
