My favorite starting hand is 10J suited. I don't know why but I have alot of success with this hand. I have cracked many pocket aces with this hand. Even though it's my favorite I still wouldnt call with it against anything or any amount. This gets alot of people in trouble when they over play their favortie hand.

I hear ya thejudge. I like AA, then its KK, QQ, JJ, you get the picture, lol

I used to have a prediliction to play J 10 soooooted a lot also, also a few other "lucky" hands. From what I've read, this is not smart poker. Its really about Made hands, High cards, sets, position, player reads, etc.

I do still twinge everytime I see 8 10 sooooted, but doesn't mean I'm gonna play it.

For some reason I don't understand...I'm partial to J8 suited.  Can't get away from it.  Have found some "luck" with the Doyle Brunson special, too, oddly enough.  Also, like 22, here and there.

Players don't realize the dynamics of the game change at different times.

SS later in the game plays a wider range of hands aggressively....

AJ may not be a hand to aggressively play early, but later in a game, especially at final table it is a powerful hand

my fav starting hand is 10-9 suited, and my favorite pp is 7-7, on reason why 10-9 is my fav hand, b-cuz simple, it's liek no matter when i get that hand if i bet with it, i win, i've cracked aces so many times i can't keep track, either a 10 or 9 almost always hits the flop if u keep track at least 65% of the time, it's pretty neat, works online and especially live :-) but maybe it just works for me idk lol
