NorthernRed2 Posted January 29, 2005 Share Posted January 29, 2005 I know this has probably been done many times (sorry Jez, Billy etc), but for us new boys the question is What are people's fav pocket cards??

spreaditabout Posted January 29, 2005 Share Posted January 29, 2005 Re: Pocket Cards Most players go over the top with AA, KK etc...I also like 10/J, J/Q but if I had to chooe a favourite it would have to be 10/10....another 10 ALWAYS shows its face..trust me...;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillyHills Posted January 29, 2005 Share Posted January 29, 2005 Re: Pocket Cards Must say that Queens seem to be my 'lucky' cards, cant remember ever getting beat with QQ. My unlucky hand that sticks in my memory is A10, suited or not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jezza Posted January 30, 2005 Share Posted January 30, 2005 Re: Pocket Cards Suited connectors are always good, I love J10s also northen - it has so many preflop possibilities and you just know if you get in cheap you are going to bust someones slowplayed AA :lol But my personal favourite in cash games has to be small pocket pairs (1010 and less) to a cheap flop. If you flop a set your hand is totally disguised and usually on the net you are seriously payed off by someone with top pair - a LOT of my cash table all in wins are from these starting hands.

dave Posted April 8, 2005 Share Posted April 8, 2005 Re: Pocket Cards QT is always a good hand to limp in with, because an AKJ flop can get some big payoffs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted April 8, 2005 Share Posted April 8, 2005 Re: Pocket Cards Nine's for me.. always play'em strong and seldom lose it's seems. I often wonder that if you get your favorite cards you play them stronger than they are actually rated and this is given off in your body language when playing live and by your betting strategy when online and you bluff / outbet more people that way.

staffy Posted April 8, 2005 Share Posted April 8, 2005 Re: Pocket Cards Suited connectors are always good. I also like J8/J9/J10 suited. I just like playing with jacks and do quite well with them. Also like the best hand in poker 72o. Always a winner.:D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
