Yes, i know. Your not suppose to have a favorite hand. But for some reason i love KQ, especially suited. Other than rags of course, the hand i hate to see is pocket Jacks! Anyone else??

Favorite = 9-10 suited
Least favorite = (don't really have a least favorite hand, you can win with any hand in any given situation)

dont really have a favorite hand... But hate jacks as well, and also hate AK... I never seem to make any big hands with AK and other players always seem to hold it when i have AQ/AJ, so its one of my least favorites

i hate pocket 5's and they hate me. i never hit with them. i think it has something to do with my disapproval of sammy hagar replacing david lee roth in van halen.
as for a favorite hand, i don't think i have one, as any hand can be the winner if you're willing to see it through to the river(keeping in mind that if one missed the flop, it's usually a good idea to get the hell outta dodge before throwing good chips after bad ones), though i do tend to play 5-2 and 9-6 when the blinds start getting up into the higher levels, while i'll fold some of those other hands that i may have played earlier in a tourney.

My most hated hand would have to be fido unsuited. It looks good but gets you in trouble alot.

For my favorite hand just look below.

This will be the strangest yet:

2,2

'cause they tend to draw at least 1 more of their brothers.

Note: they better be REAL cheap pre flop, and if the brother doesn't show, fold.

Other than that, A 10.

I know this sounds strange, but I hate getting AA. They get cracked everytime I play them.

My favorite hand is JJ. Half the time I have that hand I wind up with a set or a boat.

AA. i'll take them EVERY time. sure, you could raise to a good hand and get beaten or you might be playing with a few idiots who think unsuited connectors are the best hand ever and get sucked out on but i'll take my chances with the best pre-flop hand in hold-em.

KK on the other hand always seems to run into a big ace and guess what happens.

I'll take AA anytime, anywhere.
Can't say I hate QQ but it's the hand that gets me knocked out of more tourneys than any other.

K 10 suited or unsuited is fast becoming one of my favorite hands and my least favorite(s) are any low off suits below 10

AK suited gets me the most pumped. Very dynamic hand. Lot you can do with it (including fold if neccassary). AA's a great hand but very disapionting to lose with. Tough to fold.

Least fav...weak aces. Very easy to lose big with this hand.

I am starting to hate all high pocket pairs because they win small pots and lose big ones. I do like pocket 10s thoug because they seem to hold up alot or make sets for me.

My favorite hand became the ladies when they won me over $600 in Vegas. Had quads on turn to beat As full of Ks with the cards going AKQ..Q..A. Makes me smile every time i think of it.

My least favorite is AJ. It seems to always get outkicked. It is so hard to let it go when an A comes on the flop.

For some reason I like A9 suited or not. Its a hand u can play a variety of ways.

Easier to raise with than A8 or less, easier to fold in the face of a raise than A10.

I have to say, however, give me AA everytime, please!!!

hands i hate - KK QQ JJ because they always get either busted or beat with pocket AA

Hands i like - i really like suited connectors

My absolute worst hand - AK , because if I show it against even a small pair , i never flop anything.

Vegas must be rigged....Full House getting beaten by Quads.....I would smile every time too.

It's just good somebody didn't have rockets or this story would have taken a completely different tune. Imagine that Quad Q's getting beaten by Quad A's.

Anyway, that is a classic hand that you will remember for the rest of your life. I only hope to have one of those someday....................
