I'll go with 99. Whenever I've been in a slump or not being able to hit trips with my pocket pairs old 99 always comes thru and breaks the slump for me. And they mostly always seem to hold and win me a huge pot.

Cheers!!!

If we consider a pocket pair, then I will probably give preference to a pair of 88.

What's your favourite poker hand? Pocket 5s never dissapoint to give me a set
AA, of course.
And when you say that pocket fives never disappoint you, I assure you that this is a false impression. In time you will understand what I mean :)

Some people will tell you that AA are bad luck for them, we all know AA is generally the best hand, but that doesn't mean it performs well with everyone

The best hand for me will always be AA, but it's a hand that blinds you.

My favourite hand is K9 of suit. For some reason I always win with this hand . Very random but whatever works I guess !!

My favorite hand in poker is 99, I always win playing with that hand, you rarely lose, I think 99 is something very special for me.

to make a set I prefer par 33, it is well hidden and I extract a lot of chips from my opponent

I like pairs a lot, 44, 88, 99 are the ones I remember making more sets than others, but any pair to double if short is really good.

I've been thinking for a long time and I can say that "AK", which has helped me more often in fighting for the prize zone in tournaments. "AK" is a great weapon in skillful hands. Yes, I would not refuse “AA”, but I think it's clear that “the rockets” is my favorite card by default. :cool:

AK suited performs much better, I have terrible luck with AK, I always miss the board (always). Then I try stealing it by bluffing or sum, just digging myself in a deeper hole

AA is the best hand in poker, it's my favorite hand, because I can win a lot of money with that hand.

Of course, my favorite hand is aces! For non-premium hands, I love playing small pocket pairs

I like 99. Unfortunately, a set will only flop 12% of the time, so in most situations I have to either fold, call down light, or turn into a bluff.You want to play most of your hands in position and as the preflop aggressor, as this is the most proven way to make money in poker.

I don't have a Favourite hand, I will play any two cards depending on the situation, and have even been known to call All-in bets from opponents without looking at my hand (blind). Never when my Tournament life depends on my action, but when you get to a point where doubling up your opponent cannot hurt your stack, it's always an Instant call.
Same reason Doyle Brunson won two World Series with 10/2. Any two cards can win even the Worst two cards you can think of.
