What hands do you win with the most?

#1 14th May 2007, 11:44 AM

According to my software, the hands I won with most often are AJs, KJs, AK, and 77. The hands I've won the most money with are AJs, AK and QQ.

It's funny because I always thought that I hated AJ and 77. I guess they treat me better than I thought.

I dont have any software to prove this.
But i think the hands i win most money with are small suited connectors, where i call small raises and hit straights or flushes and they dont think i have small cards like that, so they raise or call my bet.

Therefore, any combination of

Win the most often = AA

Win the most money = KK

AA is one ive lost the most with. have trouble letting it go postflop.

Pocket 5's. I don't know what it is about that hand but it always holds up in a race against two overs and even when I'm behind it seems to improve more often than not.

A sample of 40k hands of 6-max limit hold 'em:

Won the most often with: Pocket aces - 81.93%, followed by QQ, KK, JJ, AKs, AKo, etc. QQ being ahead of KK is of course just a statistical fluctuation and the difference is about a half per cent (78.34% vs. 77.91%)

Won the most with: Pocket kings, followed by AKo, QQ and AA. This is when I'm looking at total profit.

If I instead look at number of bets per hand, I get: KK, QQ, AA, AKs, JJ, 99, TT, AKo.

It's interesting that I'm not winning the most BB/hand with AA, but not that strange. A lot of times, no one hits anything on the flop, and when I have two aces, it's unlikely that anyone else has one. Therefore, they can't even draw with ace-high and will fold earlier in the hand. Similarly, if I flop a set with aces, I'm unlikely to win much (because it's too easy for people to give up when they think I have an ace), whereas a set of kings can really hit the jackpot.
