AJ and JJ are the worst for me. If I could go back and check, I would not be surprised if more than a 1/3 of my eliminations from tournaments have involved those two starting hands. Or I get eliminated by them with better holdings, just the other day AQs vs AJs, flopped the Q...runner, runner for the flush for him.

I used to have a favorite hand. But having gained experience, I just rely on intuition.Can go any card if I like it

Ace, queen by far. Every time I get that hand I can hear Norman Chad say A,Q is a looser people. Lol

I do not have a favorite hand, but I have a hated one, AJ always leaves me in the hand when I need to go all in.

I am not talking about a 2 7 off suited. For example, for me it is J J. I seem to misplay that hand or have bad luck more often than not.
For me its J T suited or not, I always seem to hit a straight and loose to a boat or hit a flush and loose to a better flush.
A lot of it is probably my post flop play (unfortunately)

AJ + QJs, on a board with A Q T on it you can be miles ahead or miles behind so easily for both

JJs...from any position. It's like I already know the outcome.

AJo! Same here! when they're suited, they're not bad.. but unsuited brings me nothing but headaches.

I hate to say it but I'm to the point where I pretty much dislike pocket pairs all together? All of them! It doesn't matter I can't win with pockets mids I get one over with one caller and every time they bingo? If I have big pockets and board like 10/5/2 they've hit trips. In fact Its so bad it would be easier to just buy in walk up to my table and let them draw high card to see who I should give my buyin to? Low card has to follow me out side and give me a swift kick in the groin before I leave. Yeah that sounds about right? Ooo! Maybe I can find a mix tape of Hellmuth pissing and moaning to listen to on the way home? You know just to take the edge off? Plus after two minutes of listening to that I'll shove a couple pencils in my ears and forget all about the pain in my groin!

Might not be a “good” hand. But 10-9 or 9-8 suited

I have no favorite or least favorite hand. Sometimes the worst hand can be the best hand and visa versa. Playing in position really isn't a concern on the two hole cards you were dealt.

My most unfortunate hand is KT, it's extremely rare with this hand I get into the board.
