Default Re: Best 3 hand hold em combo to win pots??

My first guess is different. How about Ah Kh, Qs Js, 10d 9d. There are 18 cards out there that give you a high pair, and it's hard for an opponent to get a high pair. You also have three different straight and flush possibilities.

AKs/QJs/T9s is, in fact, a non-contender (70.9%, vs. the 73.1% of AA/KK/QQ and 76-77% of the various AA+2 suited connectors hands). Should have remembered to include that in my previous post.

I feel very confident that the best set will have to include AA and "two things very different from AA" (i.e., not pairs).

AA JTs 67s can make a straight from ACE to ACE, (if the wheel is on the board) and is double suited plus you start with the best possible hand. high card problems are your only concern. if i was playing with chips to work with i would want this. if i was all in i think i may want AA/KQs/JTs.
