What is your favorite hand to perform an all-inclusive preflop? since some are more risky

For me, a pair of pocket aces is the best pair for allin. The remaining pairs of AK and pocket premium cards are already of lesser importance.

I dont generally like to jam premium hands, think you lose too much value, but a hand like 22 with 20bbs hu is probably my favorite.

Pocket aces and queens, i dont like kings

It all depends on stack size, opponent, and situation.

I am a loser with AA in hand and now I only go all in if my hand is from KK.

Anyone who chooses other hand than AA to go all in preflop is mathematically wrong.

TT, JJ, QQ

TT, JJ

You are mathematically correct that anyone who enters allin preflop without AA has a lower chance of winning but for me the most beautiful hand with which to enter is 10 10, and the balance of this pair in my case is more winning compared to AA which often brought me misfortune.

really depends on the situation. if i'm short stack less less than 5 blinds, then pretty much any pair, suited cards. if i'm less than 10 blinds, then higher pair, ak-a10. again really depends

Mine is 88 .. I won alot of those allin's on that hand and it's my second favorite hand to ...

I think this isn't a difficult question to ponder over.

Aces, obviously.

Because best odds.

No opportunity for mind games or playing the board.

The opponent can only call and hope he lucks out.

Doesn't mean it's invincible, just means that if you win with a worse hand against pocket aces, you relied on luck.

If the chips are down enough i will shove with any hand i feel i found some faith in.

if i get plenty chips i try to avoid making such moves or puttin myself in such situations. but calling for it all with ak and other premium hands is ussually a good choice

Usually I do not go all in preflop, because I do not want to destroy my game so early and because like this you play a lottery and it is not a right strategy. I would do it only in a very fast mtt like the hyper turbo, and I would follow my calculations and my intuition!

If you go all-in with a couple of aces you are likely to throw everyone out of the pot and only win the blinds. Going all-in preflop is a marginal move that obeys certain circumstances, but for many it seems that it was the only button they see on the screen.

I am against players who only play all in, I only give all in if I have a very good game on hand.

pocket aces so often lose, so i trying to see the flop before deciding to go all-in

8 9 with hearts or spades

I make these decisions based on the size of my stack, but I usually go all in with average pocket pairs.

The range of playing hands always depends on the tournament and table. The more important the tournament, the narrower the range, and even it’s completely impossible to play allin

normally i would say depends on table, tournament and stack!

but think more often AK, AQ is the one i do most since AA or KK is better not to scare people.

one excemption is multihands with 3-4 or more players, i actually prefer like KQ, down to J10/ 10 9 suited. but ok very rare i do all in preflop multihands

the way online poker is the best is pocket AA. but you still can lose and it happens more than often

AK is one of my favorite hands to go all in with preflop. It is a very strong hand but is not a made hand yet like a pair would be and you might need all 5 community cards to make a winning hand with it. Obviously AA and other big pairs are fine to do this with but those hands are already made and I find that I like to get action with those big pairs and play flops with them. AK is a lot trickier to play a flop with than a made big pair I find as well. So all in preflop for me in a lot of spots (not all), if you get called, run 5 cards and see who takes it.

Of course AA

Good words, and so incidentally to all issues this applies! It all depends on the situation of the size of the Bank, stack, tournament you play or Cash. Seriously or not seriously! So can be said more accurately!

It is obvious that AA. Another thing is that they often fail

The only hand you should be all in preflop with is AA. If you try going in with KK, you could still be beat by AA.

The main thing is you shouldn't really be concentrating on going all in preflop unless you know you'll get a call or two. You goal should be to build a pot for you to take at the end of the hand.

AA,KK Only with these cards will I go all-in pre flop.
QQ JJ I'm not going all-in for .

depends on my stack size and villians stack sizes, AA aKs aQs would be my all in range lol

My favorite hand to perform all-in AA, KK, AK.

some cards is good for all in if you are this day have lucky

I prefer AA or KK but I like AK, QQ and AQ too.

AA KK, and AKs if there’s no more than 2 opponents still in.

AA, KK, QQ.

All-in is situational play. For instance 9Ts works best for me when low stacked in a family pot...

I have a lot of luck with 77, but it depends how many players enz...
AA KK AK

I trust math and she claims that I have better chances with two aces )))

But they FEEL right. They FEEL right. Have you no sympathy for the way people feel?

Me I do like if not love to go all in is when I get pocket aces of course what's your favorite???

Besides premiums, I honestly have the most fun when I’m making a shove I know to be correct but at the bottom of my range. It makes me feel good about how much I’ve studied to reach the point of knowing what looks like a weak shove is actually a profitable one—even though if def doesn’t always work out in the short term!

I mean AA is the answer to this question JJ always seems to be a hand I have a lot of success with though.

Push/fold equilibrium is so awesome , I feel the same when I open shove those hands because if we get called we are still flipping with 2 live cards , opponents almost always call tighter than the correct range.

So unless the opponent wakes up with a monster pocket pair it is a pure flip and we know that not always the best hand preflop wins!

For me it is AA, KK, QQ, AK, JJ, TT.

obvious AA with my eyes closed without any fear, although with 33 I always do very well

AA or J10/910 suited.

ALL IN depends on position, players, chip amount and other factors, not just the cards.

72o

these aces have eaten my head more than once. One sees them and thinks they are invincible.My favorite is the winning hand. Otherwise 52 78 KJ
