mine really varies but lately I'd have to say my least favorite starting hand is pocket jacks. They are only good preflop, after that there are so many hands that can beat them. I have definately lost a good amount of chips with JJ.

Same here, the worst hand that I will play and hate to play is fucking pocket J's. The only way I lay these down are to a reraise or a push. Very few times has JJ held up for me.

Ah AQsuited or off suit fucking hates me but it's so hard to lay down. :lol:

Only 3 ways to play low pockets for me. I'm either limping, folding or pushing and praying.

I always get really damaged, nothing ever comes out for me and theres always at least one or two callers.

A) you are not raising enough PF
B) you are not playing position poker

its either one or the other

I don't really have a least favorite. I'm not a fan of PP's, it's so hard to get away from them sometimes.

I'd say the most overvalued hand is AK, people just don't seem to be able to put it down (myself included sometimes).

i agree with that... i muck that hand CONSTANTLY. i'd actually rather be sitting with suited connectors like 8 9. nobody EVER sees that hand coming :lol:

also low pockets aggravate the shit out of me pre-flop, because i always get them out of position, and have to just call and hope i hit it big on the flop.

Agreed! I hate them b/c you feel obligated to play them. Ive started only calling the blind instead of raising like most people do.
