Top 10 holdem hands

Castlerock

sitting thinking about poker hands in work and have come up with my 10 favourite poker hands for NLH. I want to know what peoples top ten are aswell, bear in mind this is not necessarily the top 10 best hands statisically (although it may be) although it should include hands you,ve got lucky with in tournaments, hands you seem to lose less with and like to raise it up with. No particular order,

1 K,10 suit
2 10,9 suit
3 9,9
4 K,J suit
5 Q,J suit
6 A,A
7 7,7
8 10,10
9 K,Q suit
10A,K suit

TripleAce

OK, i like this game

AK spades - this is the best looking hand in the deck IMO, although I always go broke with it!
KK
AA
QQ
JJ
TT
T9 spades
99
TJ spades
78 suited


Least favorite:
AJ
KJ
KQ
QJ

all recipe for disaster

I think you'll find that AK diamonds is the best looking hand!

Killme00

nonsense 69 clubs is pretty

Huh, I was gonna post something similiar. i.e. hands that you have an irrational like/dislike for. That said, I try to play statistically correct, but it's so hard to let the superstitions go. Do you guys think it's a good thing to have a random hand in your range that you'll overplay?

- Pocket 8s (SNOWMEN!!!). They very rarely lose for me.

- I have an unnatural hatred for AJ, I never win coin tosses with AJ vs small pockets.

- 56s hits straights, flushes, sets and two-pairs for me a lot, and nobody ever sees them coming.

CHD

I like them all equally.

singee88

Lol me too. It has been good to me in the past, but definately tend to only play it a bit more in the house games now where punishment is minimal!

I'm addicted to baby one and two suited gappers, I should of noticed that I was doomed when early in my playing career 810s was my favorite hand. since then its got progressively worse and now being dealt 35s or 75s is like holding quads on the river. Be careful with these there like the crack cocaine of suited connectors.

57s
35s
46s
68s
24s
36s
58s
47s
25s

Well, at least I know I'm not the only one. I know the lads down the pub have their favourite hands, but I thought it was something that people would grow out of or something...

Irish Iron

hands i win the most with:
66 is good to me
88 is great to me
KK always cracks AA live for
AA hardly ever loses

btw i run good

77 never ever ever wins though i swear im going to stop playing no matter what the situation is.

hands i like:
98s, QJs,

the big blind when you get to check with rags and hop off the flop!

actually your all wrong because AK clubs is the dogs balls

Whyno

75clubs is the only hand you want...Rem it has to be clubs fold everythin else...:D

barrera

88 my traditional favourite, though 66 and 55 have been v nice to me this week. AQ, KQ and KT also warm the cockles.

AJ is an evil little ba$tard that shows no mercy.

Lazare

Far too little abuse in this thread imo.

TripleAce

Why so many players hate JJ is beyond me....such a lovely hand IMO!

Hot, but she is too easy....long term Queen of clubs is the one to go for!

Pabloh

Nine-deuce of diamonds is the best starting hand - diamonds make more flushes than other suits and everyone always plays high cards or suited connectors so you've a better chance of hitting the flop with 9/2. Fact.
:eek:

Tar.Aldarion

You certainly put them in a world of pain with your 92.

Swazy911

I like the 10 7 ; 9 10 and 3 5 suited makes it better,

And 77, nearly always flop the slot machine

yea? omg wow i think 77 flops more sets than any other pair too..i think it's because it's in the middle of basically of all hands.. what do you think y'all?

Swazy911

Hate KK, nearly always wind up against AA, or a trashy A
