88 is definitely for me K 10 is a weak hand, although if they are of the same suit it may not be bad, but 88 will always be better

yes, 88

Good afternoon everyone, in general I prefer to play pairs that are better in all in situations, when I have a lot of chips suited hands are better in my opinion, I prefer 88.
Poker is a very complex game, I've been playing poker since the end of 2018, and just now I'm using bluffing as a constant tool, for sure there are more technical players who prefer KT, I see expensive mtts and which players use Kx 3bet for bluff and Ax too.

in these options I prefer pocket pair, 88. I always win my all-in hands with pocket pair.

K-10- O 8-8

Hello. preflop both are good. 8-8 I think it's a little better in heads up to go all in

KT and 88 have almost the same potential but I will prefer the 88 without a doubt!

88


Not a big fan of K10 it is one of those hands that can get you in trouble a lot as you can smash a flop and still be dominated.

k10 vs 88

K10s has on an pf shove scenario less equity then 88, so u can play K10 and use the smaller pp´s for setmining, call the open, fold to 3bets and wait the flop. you will hit your set 1 out of 10 times

I think I would stick with the K10. Although the 8s are a lot to come on the flop. What do you think?



I would choose KT over 88 ... the crawl has dozens more outs and more chances than 88 to catch a set :jd4::):jd4:

The % is a coin flip I think, but I would stick with 88´s. K,10 you have to hit, 88 is already ahead and another 8 my lock it up for you.
