| Out of 20k ring hands: #1 - AA: 5 BB/hand #2 - KK: 4 BB/hand #3 - AKs: 1.6 BB/hand Out of 27k tourney hands: #1 - AA: 5.4 BB/hand #2 - KK: 2.9 BB/hand #3 - QQ: 2.7 BB/hand My QQ were regularly getting cracked in ring games, so I play them pretty tight now. Probably too tight. |

| Really AA!!!! welll of couse its best pre-flop but mine always seem to get cracked. Maybe it just feels that way, damn I need to save some pennies for poker tracker, or win some I had a feeling it might have been AK or some combanation of face card, but then I am a noobie.

Was just wondering I dont think it will change how I go about things pre-flop and might have been a bit of silly question but better to know these things than not I feel. |

| I agree that AA can set you for a good start, I have also has luck with KK at the $7k TOURNAMENT that I usually play on Sundays at ACTION POKER |

| AA's are golden! Since I started using PT3 a few weeks ago (only a small sample of 3,423 total hands), for cash games I've been playing $0.02/$0.04 FL HE on PS. Surprisingly (or maybe expectedly) my 5 most profitable hands are:
That is nice to know. Mo |

| It's not for T6 yet. Right now during their Beta testing they only support PokerStars, FullTiltPoker, and PartyPoker. I haven't even heard of T6. With all of the messages that are floating around the different poker forums about cash out issues with some of the smaller sites, I'm sticking to PS and FTP. Though I do occassionally play on Bodog, UB and AP. But I'm not depositing anything. OK, straying from the topic there. I would suggest you set up an account at FTP and/or PS and give them a try. They have plenty of freerolls, then you can use PT3 and see if you like it's tracking features. Or do an internet search for poker tracking software to see if you can find one that supports T6. GL |

I'm honestly a little surprised if you don't understand why 22 won't win as often, or for as much, as AA will...nor do I understand why you're playing poker if you think what you said in the above quote is true... Oh, mine through 85k hands: AA AKs JJ KK TT 88 44 JTs 99 98s etc etc |

Presumably that will often correlate to whether they mainly play ring or tourney. |

| Mine are a little odd (only NL25 hands ~11,000 total): By net won AKo AA 44 99 AQs The real surprise to me was that I am DOWN 10 cents with KK!!! I've had KK 52 times over this sample and have run into AA 3 times (and stacked off every time). I've also stacked off with KK against a set of 10s twice and set of 6s. I need to start folding KK preflop. |
