Which 2 starting cards cost you the most $?
They say bad cards are real easy to play correctly (fold). So are great cards. It is those cards that look real nice but are not, that will get you.
I now have a bit over 25K hands recorded in Poker Tracker split between 2-4 and 3-6. In my effort to find leaks and improve my game I am reviewing my play.
My number one most profitable hand is AA - well no surprise there, but going down to the bottom I see the lowest nets (biggest loses) in the following 3 starting hands:
1- KTo
2- KJo
3- Q8o
Observations: I am still reviewing, but I will certainly tighten up with K10 and KJ especially out of position, and release sooner...
The Q8o I have 0% VPIP with - never once put money in the pot voluntarily. Still analyzing, but my gut is telling me I too often make a 2nd best with the hand in the BB and take it to far. Weakly hitting hands that I normally wouldn't play is definitely a leak of mine.
So what are your 3 worst starting hands? - everybody has them.
