AAxx on Omaha as my HUD is telling. And I have no doubts about it. Too confident especially post flop :(

This is a nice topic, and a difficult question too ;-)!
In my opinion i think i have lost mostly with hole cards like pocket 10´s or Jacks and i think in many cases i didnt hit the board and villain was only holding a higher pair Q, K or Ace with a luckier board!
It is always very disappointing when you lose with trips and villain is higher trips for example Jacks against AA and he/she was lucky on river.

Hi. My worst hand I can remember is 99. This year, from a free ticket worth $5, I reached the final stage in the qualifying round with a buy-in of $1,060, where I could win a WPT package worth $12.4k. In this tournament I got a hand 99, which I remember to this day. Unfortunately, it wasn't possible to win the WPT package from free. It hurt quite a lot because it was close, but time heals wounds and everything is OK now. Additionally, I came across a very bad cards on flop. Player LAG made a preflop bet of x2.4bb. Another Villain called and I called out of position with 99. The flop was cards 888. I played 50% of the pot, which unfortunately tied me to the pot because the blinds were quite high and I started with about 20bb. I was hoping everyone would fold here. Unfortunately, 1 player remained. Next my spazz because I had only junk cards for a long time and I decided that this hand was perfect for me. The turn comes 9. So we have 8889 cards on the table and my 99 in hand. The river comes 7. Villain played AI. I was curious what he had. I felt there was something wrong with this hand. Villain showed T8s. I loose all and my dream. The fairy tale has ended and another lesson has been learned.

I play mainly on unibet and I don't have a HUD for this stats but for players that are active on this site and community- we had/ have a saying that the Kings are cursed and I'm doing badly with this hand too- I mean sometimes I really just want to fold it preflop(lol), just to avoid having to deal with it after as I've rarely won big pots with KK and unfortunately I've went 'broke' way too many times and tbh I've rarely played the hand in a bad way as I open / 3bet/ 4bet with it but even on good flops and or when I'm way ahead when All In preflop- the KK still find a way to lose...

The best way to lose a tournament Definitely having a bad day where you receive few cards of value and when you do get them, you don't get a good pot or worse continue losing chips

In last my tournament I lost the most with AJo vs KK. If I win I will be on the final table with mid stack and who knows maybe I win the tournament.

AA. When I have this hand I go all-in even if it's against the entire table. This has bothered me over time.

I think it's AK for me and it's not even close. I have not looked at my PokerTracker to confirm but based on how I play I definitely think this one is my biggest loser

Currently the hand that brings me the most loss is AQ sulted in position, losing to AJ AT A7 KJ or smaller pairs from JJ down, it is a hand that brings a feeling of strength pre flop, but which then ends up going nowhere bringing more loss than profit.

Well I'll be the first one to say it. either AA or JJ. They are meant to be among the top hands in NLHE, however. I guess it is different live than online. As millya5 says sometimes, I believe it is also due to the fact that once a pokersite has its money from a game, (tourney), and late reg has closed, then for them, that is the money from that game, and there is plenty more games to come. Let's get this one finished and encourage them onto the next one.

The best hand is obviously, the nutz, :unsure::unsure::unsure:
Well, I made a spin & go topic talking about some unusual patterns and logically I was asked about it, they are patterns that do not give an equal chance split between two opponents, and this for a period of time that cannot be called a variation, So I have doubts about this, but I'm playing and trying to evolve in poker, believing that this is a long season of suspicious patterns.
Because they are mainly in spin & go, my topic is there and logically being controversial because it is such a subject.

But I still try to believe that it is a bad season, but they are VERY strange.

We have all been on the wrong end of countless pots, but if you could summarize every single hand you've ever played, what hole cards have cost you the most money and why do you think it's that hand?

Pocket aces. I think that I haven't lost as much in any other hand. The reason is when you have them, and someone goes al on pre-flop you have to play it
Then of course they get cracked. Probably should stop going all in with them preflop. Nahhhhhh. I will never learn.

I lose a lot with QJ and A10 cards, apparently I pay too much to my opponents and I don't believe they're older, so now I'm playing more carefully with these cards and in general I need to play more carefully and you need to understand even AK is a weak card if there are very small cards on the flop and that's why you have to throw away the card

KK, I can't explain why, but this hand is the one where I lose the most chips, somehow my opponent manages to overcome in the most different ways possible.

Jacks were never my strong hand. Always fin myself missing the draw for atleast one card. The worst is when they have A6 for example and the river comes out an ace. Brutal.

I used to say JJ, but then started playing them more conservatively pre-flop and have been willing to fod them post after a bad flop.
QQ can be quite costly as I usually play these quite aggressivbely pre-flop and often keep pushing, even if flop is dangerous.
KK loses a fair amount to lone Ace fairly often.
AA does get cracked now and again.

But AK is where I lose the most chips. I frequently three-bet pre-flop, barrel through all streets and end up with A high...or I get it all in pre and lose out to 72o turning into a monster.

Bottom line -- the pathology is clear. Overvaluing good starting hands and not leaving enough fold equity to be able to get out without significant bloodloss.

So now, I guess I have two actions:
1) stop overvaluing pre-flop.
2) find others who have the same pathology and exploit it.

Cheers,
JT

AK?
AA always fails at important times! haha

In fact I think it's AQ from the beginning of the table...
How can they have so many sets in our top pair top kicker with AQ?! HAHA
I don't know, but AQ always seems strange to me...

It's between a pair of 99 and a pair of JJ. These hands are a bit complicated for me, especially with the pair of 99 since it represents the date of my birthday. 😁
