| Starting Hand Winning Percentage Question: If you have a starting hand where you have a high winning percentage but are an overall money loser with it (over a large sample), does that mean you just play that hand badly? I win with AKs 75.21% of the time I play it yet I have lost $ 35.78 total in 363 times dealt for a loss of .68 BB on average every time. Most of those losses are when my final hand was a High Card so I'm guessing I lose with AKs so much because I am shoving too much. any other thoughts on this? |

| re: Starting Hand Winning Percentage poker You lost $35 bucks but how much have you won with it? You have to account for variance. AA is the hand that I have won the most money with, but also the hand I have lost the most with, which is because it is probably one of the only hands I am willing to shove out there. |

When I make a pair with AKs/AKo I have lost $ 57.73. Specifically, though with AKs I consistently lose money with it even though my winning percentage is high. I think that is because I shove more easily with AKs than AKo. My variance for AKs is even worse. With AKs I have made a Flush exactly twice. When I made the 2 Flushes I lost once to a Full House and made .50 the other time for a total amt won when I make a flush with AKs of -1.21. And before you think I would have made more flushes had I stayed in the hand to the River 81 out of the 183 times I saw the flop. Further analysis shows that I flopped a 4 flush 18 times, almost exactly within expectation, but flopping a 4 flush I should make a flush 7 times if I stay to the River. Bear in mind, of those 18 times I flopped a 4 flush with AKs I NEVER folded on the Turn. Is anyone else that unlucky with a specific hand that has a high EV or is it just me? |

| re: Starting Hand Winning Percentage poker Thanks again fx. I just got pokerstove. Tried to get pokertracker 3 but the site wanted me to download an affiliated pokersite's software and make a deposit. Also stated that an existing account did not count. Any suggestions? Is there a similar type of software that is free and doesn't require me to make a deposit? |
