Every wednesday I go to a professors house and play poker with other CS guys and professors. I've only come away with slim winnings for the most part, (i usually always get a huge stack first few hands then lose it quickly). I'm curious if there's any odd type hands that you guys play, due to superstitions.

For me I always play 7 2 for laughs.

[Lathentar]

6-9

 

[Chony]

I lost with an A A. I suck.

 

[BigJonsson]

10-a

 

[Saint Cornelius]

I lost with an Ace - Jack offsuit the other night *cries, slits wrists*

Me and a bunch of friends have poker night at least once a month. I always play 3, 5 if I can see the flop for cheap. It seems like I hit a straight every time I fold it. I like suited cards, even if they aren't connected also. And I'll never play pocket jacks because they lose 99.9% of the time.

I won our last poker night. 8 people, $15 buy in, and 2nd place got their $15 back. 4 hours of poker bliss.

A-K on suit baby, don't know why, but I never lose with it.

I hate KJ and Q9 now. Had K, J and 10 of diamonds showing on the board while holding Q of diamonds. River came up as 8 of diamonds, decided to bet big even though I barely missed the straight flush and only one card in the deck could beat me. Betting against a dude with a big stack that had bullied hands before I bet 15 bucks into the already big pot. He goes all in which for me to call has to put my last 50 bucks in. After thinking a while I call it, he had the Ace of diamonds and I didn't play poker for the next month, haha. Started that day with 50 bucks, got over 100, back down to 16, back up to 90 and eventually had nothing.

BTW, I like 6-9 suited.

Luck never helped me in a poker game.

Well it has but I never counted on it, like some OCD case.

 

[SD-Ness]

J-# is a solid hand.
I also like 10-10.

 

[Artificial Meat]

pocket pairs almost always give me false hope on winning the hand. Jack-ace, preferably suited, for me.

 

[Smidget]

K-5 for some reason and for another reason I can NEVER win with A-K

 

[LakeEarth]

I lost with an A A. I suck.

Just bad luck, there's nothing you could do about it.

 

[Shogmaster]

What's a good online T-Hold'em poker site?

 

[Howlin' Mad]

I've been lucky with the Dead Man's hand, A - 8.

 

[CajoleJuice]

Queen 9. I took out Pocket Rockets with it. It was glorious.

 

[ErasureAcer]

queen-10 is the hand I never lose with.

Too bad I didn't get that in a tournament 2 weeks back. Lost on an all-in K-J against A-K before the flop.

 

[Brian Fellows]

I always play K-7 for some reason.

 

[KarishBHR]

King 4.... because my friend cheated with that hand an gave the other guy a full house

 

[dave is ok]

J-10 is the best hand to chase with in the game.
