JJ and AJ. It seems no matter how I play them its wrong. I have found it just always limp and hold for the best, anyone pushes on me preflop I just fold period.

Pair of 10 or pair of J, does not give me the certainty of being so good on different occasions, and many times I make mistakes playing those hands.

JJ for sure. It gives a false impression of power. But it loses very easily. Also, it looks like I have a special problem with that hand.

Vote for K9o..

K9o is good and bad, at the same time. Its a K, good kicker if you pair the 9, it does connect to k+ straight, it's hard to toss.
I don't insta toss k9o, though, I have had some good fortune with it. More often, catching a K, not connecting for the straight. Some success, and a lot of "why did I play that?"

Playing before flop

I completely agree with this. In tournaments you often see big bets before the flop. It is very difficult to determine when you should and should not call.

I find the hardest hand for me to play is AKo and AKs only when im in a situation whether to call all in or fold.

I think what's hardest to play is playing the ace with a low kicker. It can be very difficult to get into a difficult situation if you have a larger AQ AK than your opponent.

AJo is hardest hand, I think.
I have never seen a scene where he wins well.

for me the most difficult hands to play in poker are low pairs 22 33 because most of the time you are losing.

I prefer to play hardest hand with minimal losses or even fold when there is no position.:)

I always had problems with playing AQ, its a very strong and premium hand but when im faced with big all in i always wonder what to do. I fell like im always either fliping or being dominated

Hello! For me personally, this is KJo. I have this hand playing normally once out of a hundred, I don't know why.:secruity:

It has always been difficult for me to win with A10 and QQ, many times I pay until the flop and once I see the cards that are opened I end up withdrawing if there are bets

I agree with you: Jack is a nightmare! JJ then, not even talk. It gives a false impression of power, when in fact you are walking on the edge of a precipice. I have studied these hands that deceive you a lot. You have a right way to play with them.
I have learned that more important than winning chips, it is not losing them.
A9 out of position is difficult to play on a low flop. 2 3 7

I think KJo and K9o are the two hands that are more difficult to play in poker! In all the positions of the table this two hands are complicated to play :)

Sorry for my english :D

I would say AQ, at least for me it`s the worst best hand there is, you only dominate AJ, AT, KQ and QJ, if you go against 22-JJ it's a coinflip so decision making while holding AQ needs a lot more thinking than people think.

You know for some reason the hand that comes to mind that gets me in trouble the most often or even bounced from a tourney is AQ. Its a premium but its also very beatable, just seems like often times if you 3 bet with this one late in a tourney you're really rolling the dice.
