    Yes there is the 7-2 off, but we all have unlucky hands too. I for some reason have settled on 2 as my DAMN I HATE THIS HAND, one being AQ off the other is 5 10 suited, the former is because i go broke with it so often, the latter is I just dont know.

    It's just as stupid to have favorite hands as it is to have hands you "hate"

    KJ and K10. I'd be just as happy never seeing those 2 hands again in my life.

    Wow...you don't get it at all.

    Not playing a hand solely because of some irrational fear that you will lose with it based on past results, is -EV and dumb.

    Hate AJ with a passion mainly because it's the number one hand I see clowns calling all ins with and sucking out on my KK/AK with. It's also one of them hands I tend to get myself in a bit of a pickle with.

    A - Q has been my nemisis as of late. I'll play this hand against the 8 - 2's and still lose. I think A - Q was the end or the beginning of the end of 3 of my tourneys yesterday.

    AJ (soooted or unsoooted) is the hand of the devil. It took me 2 years to realise AJ isn't AA.

    Well according to Neek's profile, his fav. hand is A A

    So I think we can assume he doesn't like A A

    My fav. hand is 10 8 and my least fav. hand is J J. But I'm a donk so I have an excuse.

    i play all the fucking cards in the deck son, all 52...hit me off with 2-Jack off and i'll make these two freakin cards the nutz on the river....watch me suckout once or twice and you'll believe in just about anything....

    for real though, i think AQ for one - this fucking hand just never holds up for me...not even if i push with 6 blinds and i am up against the chip leader's 29off; i couldn'd double up even if i shit out dimonds from squeezin my butt chicks with incredible force called pressure; this hand for me is cursed even possible that my account is cursed by that dooms switch they have over my name.

    Second hand would be AJ - this hand also blows and unless you flop a jacko with low cards, you are crushed.

    A 10 would fall in there ass well; might as well play 56s or any suited connectors than A10.
