re: Poker & What hands do you win with the most?
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.
