    What's your favorite starting hand?
    Aside from the obvious here ( AA, KK, QQ..etc)

    Mine is 6/7 suited

    Like to bring it in with a pre-flop raise with this hand, can really crush people representing this like AK AQ, somehow find myself flopping 2-pair w/ this combo or open enders alot of the time. Just my opinion.

    Anyone got a favorite like this?

        Damn Sinner, I thought you'd come in with " I like to start with the right hand but have to move to the left by mid-week."

            Small pocket pairs. 2-2 through 9-9.

            Easy to get off but can exponentially reward you.

                My favorite is J/10. Seems to always be in the middle of things with options, either you have over cards, or you have a straight draw.

                    If you have a fav starting hand other than from the OBV, than your a fish automatically.

                    Just saying lol

                    Actually... check that. If you have a fav hand, you are a fish!

                            I like this hand too, suited. Seems like when you hit 2 pair or a straight the preflop raiser has something he is at least trying to semi bluff or even shove with.

                                      Whichever one has the highest probability of winning.

                                      Outside of the ones you listed, AKs or JJ.

                                      If you want to also exclude those, then the next best hands.

                                                    probably my right hand because even though it feels different with the left I still know its me.

                                                                A2s-A5s are under rated hands. I've won some pretty big hands TT with J7s but I don't really have a favorite other than the obvious.

                                                                  6-7 suited is a killer hand. If you miss on the flop, you can release easy. If you hit or have a great draw, you can take down a monster hand in a big pot. I also like medium suited connectors. I don't like J T though.
