How do you often wins with monsters?

So the question on the title.
For me AA or KK brings more loses than wins. I actually dont know how it happens but my opponents often finds set with small pairs or straight(flush) with suited connectors...
What`s your experience playing this hand?

with QQ / KK / AA, wins about 30%

How do you normally play these hands if you're dealt them?

Gotta play aggressive to try and avoid the weak hands staying in and hitting straights/flushes. I usually raise 4-5BB to get value from hands that are still good enough to call but kicks out low suited connectors and low pairs (probably would be safe to say that calling range for a decent player here is JJ+, AJs+, AKo just to get an idea of what hands you might be facing to watch out for flop cards). Still though you'll get the person every time calling with a whole lotta nothing. Hope that helps!

Totally agree with you but was wondering how OP was playing them to understand where the leaks in play where lol

I think these hands need to learn how to play in different situations.

Omg lol I thought you were the OP, this is what I get for replying to post while I'm working

I win with the monster with my hands as often as I play them correctly, and then reasonably analyzed the situations before the flop and on the flop.

Is this from memory or are you actually running a tracker?

Are these all-in preflop situations or situations where you went to showdown? Big difference.

If thats accurate for you, you're doing something wrong.

Re Monster

I agree with the guy who said you need to bet agressively to drive out those with small hands. I have limped before and have been beaten by crap hands like 3 and 9 off suit that hot another 3 and 9 just because I let them come along for a cheap ride. AND i end up paying the price !

I have quite a few benefit like me more suited

I win monsters on cards 70-80%, but I have to wait a long time for the AA KK QQ card, but I play a monster card perfectly in many tournaments or games!

With pocket cards AA and KK you need to play aggressively and preferably with one opponent. The more rivals in the game, the more likely to lose. With monsters AA and KK I win about 60-70%.

For me this hands : AA, KK are a coinflip everytime .. 50-50. but im a bad player thats why i say this :hahaha:

I will almost never fold AA ever. It's just so juicy even vs a really tight player's allin it's worth the risk in my opinion.

KK can so easily lose to a brutal A catching the flop or worse to an AA so I'm more wary with how brutally I play this one preflop if I'm vs a fairly tight player who is 4betting my 3bet.

QQ and JJ are VERY OVERRATED hands, you must realize people betting huge against you have AK or something and can so easily outdrawn you. Be wary with how you play them, make sure no KA shows at the flop and THEN BULLY the opponent.

there are situations when you are playng a tournament and the level is high... i believe there you could try to play them undercover you have to risk a little to be able to catch samething.

Usually I start with raise 2.2-3 bb from early or middle positions and call from late position if others folds before me with aim to play with 1-2 opponents on sb and bb.
On the flop use slow play if I called on pre-flop or cont bet of 1\2 pot if I raised on pre-flop.
In addition I started play just recently so if you can note my mistakes and share your own experience I`ll be very greatful

I try with AA and KK not much to get excited, to look for the game as who's playing and from this to draw conclusions

You need to be sure that you are isolating with those hands. Make strong aggressive moves as you are typically start with the best hand but are unlikely to improve.

in pokerstars AA win in only 60 % cases, that why you shoul be more agressive in preflop and try not to let small pairs see flop

I use the rule of 4 and 2 very often

if you slow play then most likely you will loose with AA, KK. Somebody will get 2 pairs or something better and more oppoenents means more chances to them.

pair is just a pair
